Makena's Hope Inc

Makena's Hope Inc Makena’s Hope is a Christ-Centered, non-profit organization that seeks to enhance the lives of children and adults with developmental disabilities.

Makena’s Hope Incorporated is a non-profit organization formed after the death of our daughter, Makena Jade Kashiwa. Shortly after birth, Makena was diagnosed with Wolf Hirschhorn Syndrome, an extremely rare chromosomal disorder of the 4th chromosome. Management of Wolf Hirschhorn Syndrome differs for each individual, but generally includes life-long therapies, continuous medical monitoring for se

condary complications and in some cases, special feeding techniques and management of gastrostomy difficulties. During Makena’s time in the neonatal intensive care unit at Strong Memorial Hospital it was also suggested to us that we expose her to as much sensory training and activities as we could. Makena Jade Kashiwa passed away on November 13, 2015 from pneumonia while still in the NICU. We created Makena’s Hope Incorporated as a way to not only keep her memory alive, but to provide family services. The primary mission of Makena’s Hope is to provide a Christ-Centered, non-profit organization that seeks to enhance the lives of children and adults with developmental and intellectual disabilities by offering fun, creative and educational support services. All are welcome to come to share and learn from each other’s experiences. Makena’s Hope currently provides activities at 111 North Chestnut St., Rochester, NY to children and adults with disabilities. Services that are currently provided are; Dancing classes, healthy cooking classes, personal fitness, communication skills using technology, African drums and dancing, video production, social skills and creative arts.
