Little Hands, Big Hope

Little Hands, Big Hope is a family play fundraiser in support of Lucas, a young child living with an ultra-rare genetic condition.

Hosted at Piccolo Toronto (located in Woodbridge), this event is designed to be a joyful, welcoming space where families can come together, let children play, and support a meaningful cause in a way that feels hopeful and community-driven.

Due to limited venue capacity, tickets are offered in timed entry windows to ensure a safe, calm, and enjoyable experience for all children and families. Proceeds from the event will support ongoing efforts to fund research and development of Gene Therapy Treatment pathways for Lucas, in the absence of established care or active research in Canada.

Whether you join us in person or support from home with our Cure Supporter ticket option, your presence and generosity help turn small moments of play into something much bigger — hope.

Each time slot will feature children’s free play, food and beverages, music, and adult raffles with amazing prizes. Every ticket purchased includes one free raffle entry, with additional raffle entries available for purchase at the event or online with early bird discounted options.

To help keep costs as low as possible, supporters are also welcome to reach out directly via instagram @letscurelucas with the type and quantity of tickets they would like to purchase. This option is entirely optional and helps reduce additional fees so more funds go directly towards the cause.
