Initial Backstory

This incredible grant is a lifeline for our family, enabling us to access specialized childcare for our three beautiful children: Kennedy, our spirited 5-year-old; Laney, our imaginative 3-year-old; and sweet little Myles, just 1 years old. Our oldest, Kennedy, is on the autism spectrum, and her unique needs require the care of a truly qualified professional who understands how to nurture and support special needs children. This makes our search for suitable childcare not just a task, but a challenging journey to find someone qualified and that we trust.

This grant offers us the precious gift of presence—the ability for both my husband and I to be there for Maci during her most critical moments. Our hearts overflow with gratitude for this support that comes at a time when we feel so vulnerable.

We are profoundly touched by the generosity shown to us, and we cannot express adequately how much this means to our family. A special thank you to your family for honoring your beloved daughter Eden by lending a hand to other CDH families in their time of need. Your kindness will forever be etched in our hearts. Thank you, from the depths of our souls, for helping us through this difficult chapter in our lives.
