Types of Giving

Our clinic depends on contributions from people like you. There are multiple ways you can support our clinic, and no matter how you give, your donation makes a real impact.

When you give, you help a child with complex medical needs get the specialized care he or she needs. You also help us to keep our promise that no family is turned away based on their inability to pay. And, through your generosity, you help to create a brighter future for a special needs child and their family.

We truly appreciate people like you, and we thank you for your support.
