Partnership and Caring

PROGRAM

In addition to providing “Gifts for Strength and Courage” to individual hospitalized children, Brooke’s Voice Foundation also provides direct funding to many organizations that help hospitalized children in other ways. By providing funding directly to these organizations, Brookes Voice can reach many more children.

MOUNT SINAI CHILDREN’S HOSPITAL

In collaboration with Mount Sinai Children’s, the Gifts for Strength and Courage program enables the nursing staff and Child life teams, who work directly with hospitalized children and their families, the opportunity to recognize those who would benefit most from Gifts for Strength and Courage. Children with lengthy hospital stays, those with recurring treatments, and those struggling with medical complications all qualify. With the help of nursing staff, these children are invited to choose/request a specific gift that they feel will help them get through this difficult time. Using the funding that BVF has provided (and will continue to provide) gifts are purchased upon request and given as soon as possible during their hospital stay. These Gifts for Strength and Courage encourage these brave children to remain strong and look towards a better future. Our future plan, as funding allows, is to expand this program to include many other children’s hospitals and make a positive impact on as many children as possible.

Additionally, every gift is accompanied by a notecard with a message from Brooke, encouraging each child to stay strong, stay positive and look for the good in each day. (Card shown below)

Please see below for just a few of the many stories about the children that have been helped by Brooke’s Gifts.

Thank you so much for your support and for helping make Gifts for Strength and Courage a success.

LOEYS DIETZ FOUNDATION

When Brooke was first diagnosed with Loeys Dietz syndrome, she felt very alone. She didn’t know any other kids “like her” and had nobody her own age to talk to about her feelings about LDS. Years later, when our family attended our first LDS Conference, Brooke was able to meet, talk with, and develop wonderful friendships with other children affected by LDS. This was incredibly impactful in Brooke’s life.

With Brooke’s Voice Foundation we want to make it possible for other children suffering from LDS who do not have the financial means to travel to and attend the annual conference, to meet other children like them so they do not feel so alone.

With the help of Brooke’s Voice, The Loeys Dietz Foundation was able to award 4 individuals with scholarships this year. Two were awarded the opportunity to attend the Loeys Dietz Conference in Chicago for a weekend in July 2023. The other two recipients were given the opportunity to attend a week-long summer camp, geared towards children with medical challenges, in Atlanta at the end of July.

With Your help

Brooke’s Voice Foundation will continue to help hospitalized children and their families during their most difficult times. Please donate today so BVF can continue to provide children with the Gifts for Strength and Courage they need to stay mentally strong, look for the positive in each day, and continue to fight. For larger donations, please consider sending a check to limit fees paid by the foundation. Checks can be made out to Brooke’s Voice Foundation and mailed to: Brooke’s Voice Foundation, 269 S.
