Compassion isn’t a passive state.  It’s an act of will, an act of courage;
the courage to cope with every parent’s worst nightmare,
the courage to be emotionally honest, the courage to
risk having your heart broken, the courage to care enough
to push yourself to do what’s scariest.

Dear Friends:

If you're visiting this website we know you have a heart for what we are trying to do. One of the things that we vowed to do at the beginning was to create a product that would allow us to bring joy to every pediatric ward in every hospital in the world.

At this moment, we are deep into the development process working hard not to compromise the integrity of the product and its potential to do great good in the world. Therefore, at this time, we are unable to offer this product to the public. We are enclosing a full refund, and offering you an opportunity to stay involved.

We would like to stay in touch with you, by contacting you via our newsletter occasionally to let you know what progress we have made and what needs we have. We are hoping to make the launcher part of a package that would include a book giving kids some basic information about the hospital and their particular illness, a target, and of course, a supply of “ammo.” Our hope is that a medical supply company will pick up the product, and take the launcher to the larger medial supply market, giving us the best chance to put a little fun in every pediatric patient's hand.

Our main focus is on the foundation that can exist with the sale of this product. We hope the launcher is the vehicle to accomplish that.

Here's how you can be involved. An effective network is our greatest ally in this process. We invite you to correspond with us, we have many people vested in our project but continue to seek individuals with expertise in all areas of development, marketing, administration and professional advice.
