​Owie BowWowie® and Friends Foundation comforts hurts and hearts of hospitalized children by placing a little plush dog named Owie into the arms of a child who needs a friend.

 

Small enough to carry and big enough to comfort, Lil’ Owie arrives with his own bandages and carrying case, ready to travel through hospital hallways, wait outside treatment rooms, and stay close during the moments that feel frightening or lonely.

 

Because Owie isn’t simply a toy. He is comfort and joy disguised as a toy—a soft, huggable reminder that says:

 

You are not forgotten.

You are not alone.

 

How an Arf Angel Gets Their Wings

 

Every person who gives the gift of an Owie becomes one of our Arf Angels. And every time a hospitalized child receives an Owie BowWowie to hold, an Arf Angel gets their wings.

 

Their gift brings comfort, love, and friendship when a child needs it most. It may not cure an illness, but it can help cure a lonely moment—one child, one hug, and one Owie at a time.

 

Help Owie Travel

 

Hurt happens everywhere—and comfort should, too.

 

Your gift can help Owie travel beyond the miles, through the doors of another children’s hospital, and into the arms of a child waiting for a friend.

 

Give an Owie.

Become an Arf Angel.

Help comfort a child.

 

Together, we can comfort hurts and hearts #OneOwieAtATime.
