Elevating Children with Special Needs

for 10 Years!

 

“Born” on January 18, 2012, Elevations is marking 10 years of helping children with special needs reach their full potential.

We were founded because too many children who could be helped by therapy were not getting the help they needed because of limited financial resources. Barriers that families face are rising insurance premiums, large deductibles, multiple co-pays, limited insurance benefits, and uninsured equipment and services. Unfortunately, those barriers are still with us.

Since our first funding cycle in the fall of 2013, your support has provided financial assistance in the amount of $480,286.00 for 667 awards to cover out-of-pocket medical expenses for speech, physical, occupational, and other therapies as well as home therapy equipment. Your dedication and support has ensured that children will receive the services they need, when they need them, and that will set the course for the rest of their lives.

For those who have been with us from the beginning, to those who have just discovered this hidden need in our community – Thank you! 

The following are testimonials from families

helped by an Elevations grant

We are grateful for the grant our son has received. It has helped us out financially and has allowed us to not cut into our family's tight budget.

...receiving the grant has allowed our family to focus on [our daughter] and her progression. Without the grant we would not have been able to pay for services.

Elevations funding alleviates any hesitancy for pursuing the therapy she needs. We appreciate your support!

The elevations grant has been instrumental in getting my son that help and care that he needs. Without Occupational Therapy I don't want to picture what our lives would be like. With high copays and limited visits with insurance paying out of pocket fully for my son’s visits would be nearly impossible. Because of this gift he is becoming better prepared for life and coping with external stimuli! This grant is amazing!

We are grateful for an organization who supports middle income families. These grants give middle income families a much needed break. Raising a child with special needs can be very expensive. Thank you for your support.

We will forever be grateful to Elevations for the grants that have helped cover therapy when our insurance had high deductibles and we maxed out on therapy coverage.

Elevations has helped [our son] attend the recommended therapy sessions, which have helped build his confidence. We are so grateful for everything they have done for our family.

A single mom trying to handle special needs child is tough. Knowing I have support has been so helpful!

Elevations has allowed us to receive additional therapies to help our son continue forward, decreasing his severe oral aversion and speech issues. As a parent with a child with feeding difficulties, consistency with his therapists is key and elevations helps/helped us at times when income was lost from the pandemic. We are incredibly thankful!

Just thank you, thank you so much for your continued support. This grant is truly life changing for my son and my family!

You guys are so amazing and wonderful! Thank you for all you do for families like us. I'm looking forward to eventually being at a place in my life where the kids are grown up enough that I have time and finances to give back to help support Elevations
