Will's Way Project

A Light in the Dark

Welcome to the Will’s Way Project

The Will’s Way Project honors the memory of Will Day, who during his short life spent many days in UNC and Duke Children’s Hospitals. Through many tests and procedures during those trying times, Will was always able to brighten our world with his loving smile.

We seek to bring a little light to the families and caregivers spending long days and nights with children in nearby hospitals with gift bags and care packages.
