Case Grants It is all too often that a child goes without medical care. Whether parents lose their jobs, cannot afford health insurance, or have no means to pay for needs not covered by insurance, children fall through the gaps of health care systems every day. First Hand bridges those gaps by providing funding both domestically and globally for individual children with health needs when insurance and other financial resources have been exhausted.

The Theresa Foundation - website

Helping Kids

The Theresa Foundation has a vision of the world where art and artistic expression are as important to adults as they are to children. We believe in a world where every child, regardless of ability or challenging conditions, is free to communicate through any art form available. The Foundation honors the memory of Theresa Alessandra Russo by touching the lives of children with special needs and their families. To do this it fosters each child’s unique abilities through direct support and programs focusing on art, music, dance and recreation. Most recipients are organizations but they grants for individuals also. They also do Pooled Trusts.
