My Story…
This year I am participating in the Rally for DHK. Please help me and my team raise money for this cause so near and dear to my heart.
The Darling Home for Kids envisions a world where no child is too complex to receive the love, care and support they deserve. Children with medical complexities deserve to just be kids and enjoy all the joys of childhood. At DHK they can swing on the wheelchair swing at the park and feel the wind in their hair. They can feel the sun on their face as they walk through our nature trails. They can try a lick of icing while helping to bake a cake.
The Darling Home for Kids is the only place of its kind in Canada providing a continuum of care in respite, residential and hospice palliative services to children with complex medical needs and their families
Description
As The Darling Home for Kids works to reintegrate families into their respite and palliative services and offer both in-person and virtual Family Support programs to meet the increasing mental health needs of families that access their programs, they will also be maintaining crisis services and beds available to those who may need them at a moment’s notice. Many new families have been waiting for services for more than two years, and DHK is eager to provide them with the help they need and have been desperately waiting for.
Today, I’m asking for your help.
Your donation is a gift for today, and an investment in the future, for children with complex medical needs and their families. Proceeds from the Rally for DHK will help to support our core programs and services. With your help, we can provide each child with the best care possible. Your funds could provide:
- $30 – a monthly subscription for our kids to enjoy their favourite shows
- $50 – a Family Support session, like Siblings or Parents Connect
- $100 – Music, arts, and craft supplies – for our therapy programs
- $200 – an outing for our residents
- $500 – technology to help our kids attend virtual medical appointments and avoid travel to the hospital
- $1,000 – operational costs associated with a weekend of respite care
- $2,500 – an inclusive event for all of our families at DHK
