FUNDING FOCUS: SPECIALIZED EQUIPMENT
“What I Wish” is an annual campaign where parents, caregivers, teachers, and/or relatives submit custom device “wishes” for children with developmental or cognitive challenges (ages 2-21). Requests are accepted in early spring of each year. Even if you have missed the spring deadline date, submit your request anyway as we will consider requests year-round on a case by case basis. Once requests are approved for scope and safety, 1-3 families receive their requests, at no charge – Yes, no charge! For all other requests, families can still have their wishes granted for a small project fee – far below market price. For families with income challenges, we work with the families to achieve their goals. Examples: specialized beds, custom communication device holders, unique bikes & scooters, specialized sporting equipment and more. Volunteer engineers, OTs, & PTs design according to the child's needs.
