What began as a pilot project in 2022 has now become a valued part of emergency care for children: The Theodora Foundation’s «Emergency Giggles» programme now brings valuable variety and relief to emergency wards in nine hospitals.

QUALITY is a top priority at the Theodora Foundation. Our quality guidelines have been reviewed, supplemented and given a new design.

It is with great sadness and deep regret that we bid farewell to our dear colleague, Anita Notz, who has left us far too soon. Her sudden passing fills us with shock and sorrow.

One year ago, the Theodora Foundation started its activities at the Special Education Centre of the Principality of Liechtenstein (hpz). We look back on the past twelve months and explain why the visits to our neighbouring country are so important.

The Week of Happiness is back. Thanks to this digital campaign, spread happiness on social media and, above all, bring smiles to children in hospital.

Nine new Giggle Doctors have officially received their Certificate of Advanced Studies. These “Junior Giggle Doctors” now visit hospitals and specialist care centres across Switzerland, bringing moments of joy and escape to children.

To understand how we can best fulfil our mission with young patients, we need your help. Your opinion matters!
