www.djrockfoundation.org Our mission at The Rock Foundation is to create a platform of hope and possibility for children nationwide by providing programs designed to enrich and empower the lives and self-esteem of under-served, at-risk youth and children hospitalized for medical disabilities, disorders and illnesses. The Rock Foundation is committed to providing opportunities and programs that empower and enrich the lives of children ranging from infancy to twenty-two years of age.



• The Rock’s Toy Chest, the foundation’s flagship in-patient children’s hospital program in select children’s hospitals nationwide. Toy Chest items are customized to fulfill children’s needs and wishes. The program thrives on generous in-kind, corporate and private donations. Such a contribution makes a difference in the lives of these hospitalized children by building their self-esteem, creating hope and exhibiting that recovery is possible. The Toy Chest program is currently active in Boston, Los Angeles and Miami. Our goal is to expand the program in additional cities throughout the country.

National Children’s Fitness Challenge: The Rock Foundation is an advocate for physical fitness. We believe that childhood fitness routines are not only imperative for curbing childhood obesity, but that an active lifestyle creates self-confidence and teaches children the important life lessons of setting goals, facing challenges, overcoming obstacles, and realizing accomplishments.
