At One Rb World, the Child Life program is so much more than a room full of toys, books, crafts, and games.
It is a place where children can play, ask questions, make friends, explore big feelings, and feel less alone in their retinoblastoma experience.
These photos from our 2024 One Rb World Child Life program in Hawaii capture some of the joy, creativity, laughter, and connection that happen when kids have a space created just for them.

Thank you, Gibroni’s, for serving up hope one slice at a time.
A message from this spring's International Society of Ocular Oncology - ISOO Rio, where leaders in ocular oncology, child life, and the community were already looking ahead to One Rb World 2026.
We’re grateful to Dr. Jesse Berry of Children's Hospital Los Angeles, Dr. Maura Di Nicola of Bascom Palmer Eye Institute, Marissa Gonzalez, World Eye Cancer Hope USA President, and Morgan Livingstone, WE C Hope Child Life Director, for helping us plan a meaningful gathering for families, survivors, medical professionals, researchers, and advocates in San Antonio this September.
One Rb World is more than a conference. It’s a chance to learn, connect, share experiences, and strengthen a global community centered on life and sight for every child.
👋 Will we see you in San Antonio?
