Become a Sustainer Donor

Become a Sustainer Donor and make a difference! 

Almost Home Kids began 25 years ago as the dream of two mothers who longed to create a place in the community where families of children with medical complexities could turn for care to avoid prolonged hospitalization or long-term care institutions. 

Today, we do just that, providing a bridge from hospital to home for children with medical complexities. Our home-like environment is more comfortable, less expensive and has proven to strengthen a child’s development when compared to an extended hospital stay.

Your Monthly Gift Makes an Impact 

• $15: Diapers, formula and other items are a necessity for many families. Your support helps to ensure these essentials are always available for the children in our care.
• $25: Safe, reliable transportation gives families one less thing to worry about. Your gift helps to provide gas cards, parking vouchers or public transit passes for those with no access to a car.
• $50:  Therapy tools such as art and craft supplies, adaptive toys and sensory books allow children to express themselves through art and play. Our Speech, Occupational and Physical Therapists, Child Life Specialist and volunteers use these supplies to interact with children and their siblings.
• $100: Adaptive equipment like positioning wedges, mats and chairs are vitally important to help provide the most comfortable positioning assistance to each child. Your gift helps us provide essential physical support.
