Established in 2011, Civillico’s nonprofit now partners with over 100 children’s hospitals nationwide, reaching an estimated 500,000 lives. The organization functions entirely through volunteer efforts, with no paid staff, relying on entertainers who donate their time to brighten the hospital experience for children. In 2025 alone, volunteers contributed more than 7,500 hours to the cause.
Jeff Civillico Honored for Fifteen Years of Pediatric Charity Work
Las Vegas headliner and keynote speaker Jeff Civillico received the Nido R. Qubein Philanthropist of the Year Award on July 26 in Austin. The National Speakers Association Foundation recognized Civillico for his decade-and-a-half commitment to Win Win Charity, which coordinates celebrity and athlete visits for pediatric patients across the United States.
Patrick Henry, chair of the Foundation’s board of trustees, presented the award during the Influence 2026 conference. He noted that Civillico has integrated this philanthropic service into the core of his career rather than treating it as a peripheral activity. The award, named after High Point University president Dr. Nido Qubein, honors individuals who provide service without expecting personal gain. Civillico is the 22nd recipient, joining a group that includes KIND Snacks founder Daniel Lubetzky and Dallas Mavericks CEO Cynthia Marshall.
