Story

Our dad and grandfather spent part of his childhood in an Irish orphanage school. He has always had great empathy for children, especially those with health challenges. Being with family was very important to him in his adult life as he didn’t have that opportunity as a child. He taught us all how important family is..

The Jack and Jill Foundation (Ireland)  provides home nursing care to families with babies with severe developmental delay, brain damage and end of life care up to the age of 5 yrs. Every €16.00/$18.80 raised will provide One Hour Home Nursing Care for families of these children. 

Thank you for helping us honor him by enabling these critically ill children to be home with their families.
