Rainbows for All Children hosts a number of events each year to raise funds that support our programs and annual operating budget.

Rainbows for All Children is thrilled to launch our premier software application created specifically to help support children who are grieving. This unique application was developed by a team of Evanston junior high, high school, and college students: designed by kids for kids.
Users will be able to search for a Rainbows group in their area, access support resources, and connect with Rainbows international headquarters. The free application includes a feature that provides immediate assistance to children when they are feeling low, suggesting a fun stress-relieving activity, meditation, breathing exercise, and/or words of encouragement to boost their mood.
