A Message from Fello
When you make a gift to the endowment, you are supporting the Family Fund for decades and generations to come.
The purpose of the endowment is to help ensure the strength and longevity of the Family Fund. The Family Fund will continue to operate as it always has, with annual donations creating the funding distributed in February each year. Your endowment gift is immediately invested and becomes 5% of the Family Fund’s annual income once we reach $1M, adding additional funds to the annual grant pool. The Family Fund is 100% funded by generous donors, like you.
Founded in 2017, the Family Fund is a grant program that provides financial support for children with disabilities – helping them access critical, expensive, and unfunded therapies, equipment, and life-enriching opportunities. Since its founding, we have awarded $382,000 to kids throughout Anne Arundel, Caroline, Dorchester, Kent, Talbot, Queen Anne’s, Somerset, Wicomico, and Worcester counties.
Thanks to generous support over the years, we’ve seen kids learn to talk, walk, become more independent, catch up in school, and create happy memories they never would have otherwise been able to. Kids were able to go to therapy. They had access to technology. They went to camp and had access to specialized equipment that made their lives better every day.
We can’t change how much these critical services cost, but by supporting the Family Fund’s endowment, you can change how many kids can access them.
