Founder’s Message: Quality of Life Remains Our Mission

Dear Friends,

The Help A Little One Foundation is all about quality of life.

We started out providing small comforts to children who live very limited lives in nursing homes. Our holiday gift program continues this effort today.

H.A.L.O. also continues to partner with individual families to purchase adaptive equipment such as chairs and tricycles to promote social interaction and make life easier for young people receiving home-based care.

Almost 20 years ago we began underwriting the cost of recreational outings that provide a change of scenery or new sensory experiences for the children in facilities. We also now fund equipment such as the pool supplies at NEPC, which are featured in this newsletter.

Through our professionally managed Family Circle division, we support much-needed social activities in the community for children with severe neurological impairment, too.

I hope you enjoy the short stories in this newsletter about recent gifts, and some of the people who strive, as we do, to enhance the lives of “our kids.”

Thank you for your continued interest and support of H.A.L.O.

Yours truly,
