Another week of making magical memories at Isabel's House💙

This week at Isabel's House was full of exploring, creating, and plenty of laughter. The kiddos wandered through the Japanese Stroll Garden, met some new animal friends at Dickerson Park Zoo, headed to the park, and enjoyed some music therapy right here at the House.

Back home, the adventures kept going! We made homemade peach popsicles, chased bubbles, created a kids-sized car wash, "put out" imaginary chalk-drawn fires around the playground as firefighters, and got crafty with some bubble-foam sensory play. 🫧🚒🍦

These moments may look like simple childhood fun, and that's exactly what makes them so special. For children experiencing a difficult or uncertain season, having a safe place to play, explore, learn, and laugh can bring stability and comfort when they need it most.

At Isabel's House, crisis care is about more than providing a safe place to stay. It's about making sure childhood doesn't have to stop when children and families experience crisis. And our supporters, like you, are what allow these memories to be made at Isabel's House. 🦋💙

The competition is heating up… 👀🔥

We asked our Community Champions one very important question: “Which Community Champion will be your biggest competition?”

🏆 Dr. Sandy knows Megan gets things DONE.
🏆 Ryan has his eye on Megan, too—but knows this entire group is tough to beat.
🏆 Megan is calling out Ryan (and his extra time on his hands 😂).
🏆 Bob isn’t counting anyone out—because every Champion brings a different network, talent, and passion to the table.
🏆 And Chris? He knows Ryan is competitive… but he’s betting on the community’s love for firefighters. 🚒

The rivalry may be real, but so is the reason behind it. Every dollar raised by every Champion helps Isabel’s House provide a safe place for children and support for families experiencing crisis. 🧡

So… whose team are YOU on?

Choose your Champion—or show some love to all five—and help push their campaigns toward the finish line!

This , the team at Isabel's House would like to highlight a few urgent needs!

👶 Diapers and Pullups: We are in need of size 7 diapers, size 4t/5t and size 5t/6t pull ups! We have many children in our house using diapers, as well as families who come to our community bank in need of diapers!

🍼 Baby Formula: We often have infants in our care, but we also have families who look to us for support in childcare resources! We would prefer Similac Advanced, Similac 360, or Enfamil Baby Formula.

You can help children and families in need around our community by donating to Isabel's House! Feel free to Drop off donations at 2750 West Bennett Street, Springfield MO 65802, or ship directly from our Amazon Wishlist: https://a.co/0aImuaIo

Every child deserves the chance to simply be a kid. 🧡

For Dr. Sandy Rice, supporting families in crisis means creating stability and safety during uncertain moments—giving children the freedom to feel excited, play, grow, and experience childhood without carrying the weight of the crisis around them.

That kind of support can make a huge impact in a child’s life.

Help Sandy make that impact possible. Support her Community Champion campaign and help provide a safe place for local children and families when they need it most. 🦋

Supporting a child in crisis means more than meeting their basic needs.

Yes, they need food. Shelter. Clothing.

But Community Champion Ryan Hurn reminds us that children also need to know they are safe, supported, and loved. 🧡

Even if the people caring for them entered their lives only days—or hours—ago, every child deserves to feel like they have a community surrounding them during a difficult moment.

You can help create that feeling.

Support Ryan’s Community Champion campaign and help Isabel’s House continue surrounding local children and families with safety, support, and love when they need it most.

What if we could help families before a difficult situation becomes an even bigger crisis?

That’s what Community Champion Bob Dixon means when he talks about “going upstream.”

Supporting children and families during the moments when they need help most doesn’t just address today’s crisis—it can prevent challenges from growing, strengthen families, and create an impact that reaches far beyond one night of care.

As Bob puts it, this is about our community stepping up for our community.

Join him. Support Bob’s Community Champion campaign and help Isabel’s House intervene early, strengthen families, and create change that can last for generations. 🧡

A safe place to sleep.

It sounds simple. For many of us, it’s something we rarely have to think about—but for a family experiencing crisis, that sense of safety can mean everything. 🧡

For Community Champion Megan Neyer, supporting children and families means making sure kids can feel comfortable, safe, and happy while their parents have the time and support they need to navigate whatever challenge brought them to Isabel’s House.

Help Megan give more families that sense of security. Support her Community Champion campaign and help make safe nights possible for children in our community. 🦋

When someone needs help, you help them. You don’t ask how they got there first. ❤️

That’s one of the reasons Isabel’s House resonates so deeply with Community Champion Chris Roush.

As a firefighter, Chris sees a powerful connection between his work and ours: meeting people in difficult moments without judgment, helping them get back on their feet, and simply leading with love.

That same spirit is at the heart of Isabel’s House.

Join Chris in supporting children and families facing crisis. Every gift to his Community Champion campaign helps ensure families in our community have somewhere to turn when they need help most.

For a parent of a child with additional support needs, asking for help can come with an extra layer of worry: Will someone understand my child? Will they know how to care for them? Will they be safe?

Those were especially important questions for one mother in our community who was experiencing homelessness while caring for her child with autism.

At Isabel’s House, she found a place where her child could be cared for in a safe, structured, and supportive environment. Our team worked to understand their individual needs, gave them opportunities to comfortably interact with other children, and kept Mom informed throughout their stay.

At the same time, our Family Advocates helped Mom connect with resources for housing and child care assistance so she could focus on creating greater stability for her family.

Isabel’s House serves children and families facing many different circumstances. Our staff are prepared to provide compassionate, individualized care for children with a wide range of developmental, sensory, behavioral, and communication needs.

Because sometimes the first step toward stability is simply knowing, “My child is safe. I can focus on what comes next.”

This has been an exciting week for the kiddos at Isabel's House! ☀ 💙

To start the week, they cooled off from the heat with water play in the backyard! we rode bikes, set up water stations, and had the perfect summer day!

On Wednesday, we went to the park. We got some good exercise in, played on the swings, and enjoyed some ice-cream to top it off!

On Thursday, we started the day at the Discovery Center. We learned about dinosaurs, magnets, and all things science! Afterwards, we got to end the day watching our next-door neighbors, the Springfield Fire Department, practice! They even let us take a look at their firetrucks!

To a child experiencing a difficult season, these moments are more than just fun. They’re chances to laugh, explore, feel safe, and simply be a kid. And we’re so grateful to everyone who helps make days like these possible. 🦋
