Bringing extra joy, care, and hope to medically complex families
Where insurance stops, we begin.
At The Extra Sprinkles Project, we brighten daily life for children with complex respiratory needs and surround their caregivers with uplifting community support.
How we bring extra sweetness to caregiving
Caring for a child with complex respiratory needs requires dedication, strength, and continuous vigilance. We offer heartfelt extras designed to bring light, comfort, and real help to the entire family.
Care packages
Thoughtful gift boxes packed with sensory toys, cozy essentials, and everyday cheer for young respiratory warriors.
Equipment
Special beds and mattresses, adaptive gaming equipment, Hoyer lifts, and more families need outside of what insurance covers.
Emergency support
Direct assistance and comfort grants for families facing unexpected hospital admissions and clinical journeys.
Because life is sweeter with extra sprinkles
Founded in Birmingham, Alabama, The Extra Sprinkles Project was born from a simple belief: medical journeys should never eclipse childhood joy. We replace clinical isolation with vibrant companionship, delivering personalized support that reminds every family they are celebrated, supported, and never alone.
The Extra Sprinkles Project exists to bring hope, comfort, and moments of joy to medically complex children and their families by providing financial assistance, essential resources, and compassionate support when traditional systems fall short.
Moments of hope, courage, and genuine joy
Every milestone reached and smile shared inspires our work. Discover personal experiences from parents, siblings, and children walking the complex respiratory path.
