The Children's Fund

Giving Children Roots & Wings

The statistics about children today are unsettling. They suffer higher rates of abuse, neglect, depression and psychiatric disorders than any other measured generation before them. Many are victims; some become perpetrators. All can be helped with the right resources.

The Children's Fund of the Family & Children's Center seeks to secure those resources by providing the core funding for services which are dramatically impacting area children and youth:

  • Healthy Families assures that kids in at-risk homes don't experience the ravages of child abuse and neglect.
  • Counseling services help devastated youth put their lives back together.
  • Treatment Foster Care provides a skilled and loving home for some of society's most unwanted children.
  • Alternative Education turns around the lives of troubled teens and helps turn them into productive citizens.
  • Residential Services provide stable, supportive environments in which kids learn new coping skills.

Donors to The Children's Fund commit to gifts of $5,000, $10,000 or $15,000 spread over five years. They give roots and wings to the children we serve by providing the dependable, predictable funding needed for effective, high-quality services. Such funding enables us to expand programming, ease waiting lists and develop creative solutions to some of the most complex problems facing today's youth.

"There are only two lasting bequests we can hope to give our children. One of these is roots, the other wings."
