About Us
Our Mission
To provide the health, happiness, care and future that all children deserve. We will accomplish this goal through networking with various children's charities as well as providing programs set up through 4 The Children Foundation
Our History
My name is Todd, I was diagnosed with Spinal Muscular Atrophy (Muscular Dystrophy) at 8 months old. My family was given a life expectancy of 3 yrs. I've always believed a strong mind and purpose of life is the reason I'm still here. I have been one of the fortunate ones. With a great family and amazing friends to support me, my life has been in many ways blessed.
Knowing how fortunate I am I still see the struggles everyday. Unfortunately we live in a monetary world and see children without suffer. Electric wheelchairs, accessible vehicles and insulin pumps are a few examples of high priced items needed. The list truly does go on and on. It's sad to say but many children are in need of simple items like diapers, clothes, even food!
As a young child I always fundraised for MDA. When I was about 35 I joined the board of a small nonprofit 501c3 foundation that benefited disabled children. My dream has been to set up my own nonprofit charity 4 The Children ..... for ALL children who are in need of help. This is a big dream and like everything else expensive to make happen.
I founded 4 The Children Foundation Inc, a 501(c)3 non-profit on November 2018. My hope was this would be the first step towards my goals.
I need your help to make this dream a reality !
