Your Help enRiCHSS a Pediatric Stroke Survivors' Life!!
This organization was founded to provide families of Indiana, Kentucky and Ohio with children that have suffered a stroke or who have hemiplegia, a foundation which allows financial assistance and education for families, raises public awareness, supports opportunities for specialized camps, scholarship awards, and money for pediatric stroke research
Your donations help RiCHSS to meet their Goals:
1. Research designed specifically for infants and children who have suffered strokes.
2. Provide a support group and network for the parents to be a part of and help with things they might encounter, ways to cope, or how to help with sibling understanding.
3. Design a public campaign that will help to raise more funds and awareness for pediatric stroke;
4. Provide financial assistance for families whose child needs medical procedures, therapy, vision, and dental needs, specialized therapy programs designed to enhance the use of the weak or unused side, braces, supports, and assistive technology devices that may benefit the child but tend to be extremely expensive.
5. Design and organize camps that will benefit children with hemiparesis
6. Give children a place to find others that have some of the same difficulties as they do and share ideas and suggestions about what actions to take to overcome them.
