Why this campaign matters
Hey friends, it's Chris Pratt here—actor, dad, and big believer in giving kids the tools to thrive. You know me from Guardians of the Galaxy, Jurassic World, and Parks & Rec, but my real passion is The Brother's Trust, the charity I co-founded with my brother C.J. in 2012 to honor our family's values of faith, family, and fun. We've raised millions for kids in need, and now, I'm launching the Brother's Trust Family Fund to take it further.
On October 15, 2025, I hosted a virtual family fun day on Instagram Live with special guests like my brother C.J., Zendaya, and surprise kid performers, raising early funds for mental health and adventure programs. It was a blast—over 50,000 of you tuned in, sharing stories of your own family adventures. But we need more to make a real impact.
This campaign is all about empowering kids to build strong hearts and big dreams. Your donations will directly fund:
- Mental Health Support: Therapy sessions, peer counseling, and family workshops to help kids (and their parents) navigate challenges like anxiety or loss (inspired by my own journey as a dad to Jack and Lyla).
- Adventure Programs: Scholarships for outdoor camps, family retreats, and sports leagues to get kids off screens and into nature—building confidence, teamwork, and joy.
- Ongoing Impact: Matching grants to double every dollar, ensuring long-term support for families in need, with a focus on underserved communities.
As a dad who's seen the magic of a good adventure (from dino digs with Jack to stargazing with Lyla), I know how these experiences change lives. Whether you're a loyal fan who's walked with me through Star-Lord's ups and downs or just someone who believes in brighter futures for kids, your support means the world. Let's make 2025 the year we give every child a chance to dream big. Donate now and join the Brother's Trust family—together, we're unstoppable.
From my heart to yours—endlessly grateful. Chris Pratt (Actor, Dad, and Brother's Trust Co-Founder)
