We reconnect children with their favorite hobbies—Pokémon & Other Trading Card Games, Sports, Anime, Gaming, 3D Printing & Maker Projects, and DIY Arts & Crafts—to bring comfort and normalcy during life's hardest chapters.Because every child deserves to create, explore, and feel like a kid again.
When families face trauma, illness, or crisis, children lose more than stability. They lose the simple joy of being a kid. We're here to bring that joy back.
Parents focus on just getting through each day. Siblings feel invisible. The hobbies that once brought so much joy, like collecting Pokemon cards, reading manga, and making art, suddenly feel impossible to keep up with.
That's where Hole Heart Project comes in. We donate free Pokemon cards, manga, 3D printers and filament, art supplies, and craft materials to children in hospitals, foster care, and families facing hardship. We believe every kid deserves the tools to create, play, and feel like a kid, no matter what they're facing.
"We started this because we've been there. We know how much a booster pack, a 3D printer to call their own, or a fresh set of art supplies can mean when everything else feels broken."
We meet kids where their passions live and give them the equipment and supplies they need to collect, read, create, and thrive.
Free Pokemon cards, One Piece TCG, Magic the Gathering, Yu-Gi-Oh, Disney Lorcana, and sports cards for kids in need. We donate sealed booster packs, starter decks, elite trainer boxes, and collector items to bring joy to children facing hardship.
Free manga volumes, anime figures, art books, and merchandise for children in hospitals and foster care. From popular shonen titles to trending series, we help kids escape into amazing worlds of adventure and find comfort through storytelling.
Free 3D printers, filament, and resin for kids who want to become makers. We donate beginner-friendly 3D printing equipment and STEM supplies so children can design, create, and bring their imagination to life. 3D printing is a proven therapeutic tool for trauma recovery.
Free art supplies and craft materials including sketchbooks, paints, markers, colored pencils, canvases, clay, beads, yarn, and DIY craft kits. We stock kids up with quality creative supplies for art therapy and self-expression during difficult times.
Research shows that creative activities, hands-on making, and hobby engagement during difficult times helps children heal faster, reduce anxiety, and maintain their sense of identity and normalcy.
Opening a Pokemon booster pack, setting up their own 3D printer, or diving into a new art project gives kids a break from stress. That creative flow state actually helps their brains heal.
Being "the artist," "the Pokemon collector," or "the kid with the 3D printer" gives children an identity beyond their diagnosis. Having their own equipment and supplies reminds everyone they're still just kids with dreams.
Card games, art projects, and 3D printing help kids stay connected to friends and family. Trading cards, sharing artwork, and printing gifts for loved ones keeps relationships strong during tough times.
Every donation puts trading cards, manga, 3D printers, and art supplies directly in the hands of kids who need them most. Need help for your own family? We've got you covered.
