We are getting closer and closer to reaching our goal for this year! 👏🏻

If you or your business would like to donate to our scholarship fund, please reach out. ✉️

Scholarships are given to children of Northeast Arkansas with disabilities. Insurance companies do not cover all medical expenses! 👎🏻

We have provided over $30,000 in scholarships for things like medical equipment, modified toys for inclusive play, intensive therapies, adapted car seats, medical conferences, and so much more.

This is all because of your generous donations and support! 🩵
