Sunshine Sewers is a dedicated sewing group within ANZA that creates handmade crafts to support patients at the Philippine Children’s Medical Center (PCMC). Established on August 10, 1979, PCMC specializes in pediatric care and high-risk pregnancies and is home to the largest pediatric ICU and NICU in the Philippines. Through their thoughtfully crafted items, the Sunshine Sewers bring comfort and care to young patients undergoing treatment.

This initiative highlights ANZA Manila's commitment to supporting children's healthcare and making a positive impact in the community.

What We Create:

The Sunshine Sewers craft handmade items designed to bring comfort and joy to young patients at PCMC, brightening their hospital stays and offering a sense of warmth and care:

• Pillowcases: Bright and colorful pillowcases that not only add cheer to hospital wards but also become personal belongings for patients to take home.

• Soft Toys: Handmade stuffed toys that provide comfort and companionship to children during difficult times, helping them feel less alone.

• Toiletry Cases: Small toiletry pouches for older patients, filled with donated amenities from hotels and airlines, helping them feel cared for and respected.

Through these thoughtful creations, the Sunshine Sewers help make hospital stays a little brighter, reflecting ANZA Manila’s dedication to supporting children in need and making a meaningful difference in their lives.
