We don't just paint windows:
Thank you so much for being part of Gold Pumpkins for the Cure 2025. This was our fifth year, and what began as a small idea has grown into something truly meaningful. It has spread to families, schools, Scout troops, sports teams, and community groups across the country, empowering kids and adults to raise awareness for pediatric cancer through creativity, kindness, and hope.
Together, we reached a remarkable milestone this year with a total of 20,475 decorated gold pumpkins. This number reflects not only participation but the strength, love, and compassion shared by so many communities.
Each gold pumpkin carries meaning. Some were created in honor of children who are courageously fighting cancer. Some were made in celebration of children who have survived. Many were decorated in memory of children who are forever loved and remembered. We hold space for every family and every story, and we are deeply grateful for all who chose to participate.
Because of your efforts, $20,475 will be donated directly to pediatric cancer research. Your support helps move forward important work focused on better, safer, and more effective treatments for children.
We are truly grateful for your support and your thoughtfulness. Thank you for taking the time to paint, to share, and to stand with us. Watching this project grow over five years and seeing the way it empowers children and brings communities together has been incredibly meaningful.
As we close out our 5th Gold Pumpkins season, we are filled with gratitude and a renewed sense of purpose. Your participation reminds us that even small acts can create real change. Together, we continue to shine light, spread hope, and move closer to better outcomes for children who need it most. We believe deeply in this mission, and we are so grateful to have you with us.
With heartfelt gratitude,
The Little Hero Foundation
