SGR Slomberg Charitable Foundation

We are a non-profit foundation who’s mission is to make a difference in the lives of children. This is done by working with other non-profit organizations, supporting initiatives and programs that enhance the lives of children and their families. Slomberg Charitable Foundation is committed to monitoring its support to ensure quality in the programs we support. As we grow, the foundation will continue to be dedicated to developing and most importantly raising awareness of project needs for children and their families.

     GoodSearch: You Search...We Give!
Just this past week we picked up over 100 wishes from the kids, which is more than double what we were given last year. Their stories and wishes broke our hearts and brought tears to our eyes. This coming Saturday will mark our 2nd Annual I Wish I May I Wish I Might event to raise money to grant wishes. Some of the wishes we receive range from items like special adapted bikes, dollhouses, to drum sets. But many of these kids are in need of I-Pads. Many of us use them to watch movies, to play games and to conduct business, but this device is perfect to help kids with many different medical conditions to help them communicate to their mom and dad and to learn new motor skills. We are a small family organization and will not be able to raise enough money to purchase even enough used I-Pads to grant all of the wishes.

Please consider donating your I-Pad today and make a wish come true.

To purchase special equipment for these kids would cost about $2,000 per device, many of the therapist have found using an I-Pad is more portable and easier for these kids to use. Also, apps replace expensive software, the I-Pad can be used to learn many different skills and can grow with the child.

We can’t even wonder what it would be like not to be able to communicate, can you? A gift of this small device would make that impact and change the world for these kids. Please contact us at cslomberg@sgrfoundation.org to donate your I-Pad today or please make a donation so that we can reach our goal and grant all 100 wishes.

"We call a child's mind "small" simply by habit; perhaps it is larger than ours is, for it can take in almost anything without effort" Christopher Morley (American writer and editor 1890-1957)
