The families, the children and individuals with disabiliies.  The Especially Needed events are created to establish lasting joyful moments in these children's lives - experiences that they may not have the opportunity to have anywhere else.  These events take planning, time and volunteers and are completely funded by grants, corporate sponsorships and individual donations.

​

Who else benefits from your donation?  You. Knowing that your donation makes you partially responsible for the smiles on these children's faces when they are sitting, quite possibly for the first time, on Santa's lap or playing in an environment where they will be loved, included and not judged for their differences, is one of the biggest gifts you can give yourself.
