Narrative

The Help A Little One Foundation is dedicated to enhancing the quality of life for children with neurological disease by providing tangible items and supporting programs which increase physical comfort, facilitate social interaction, and build acceptance in the greater community. Additionally HALO endeavours to assist and support the caregivers of these children.

The term neurological impairment encompasses a group of brain and spinal cord disorders that relate to the central nervous system. A neurological impairment or disability may involve speech, motor skills, vision, memory, muscle actions or learning abilities. Common diagnoses are cerebral palsy, epilepsy, brain injury, multiple sclerosis and Tourette’s Syndrome. Neurological impairment can also be a result of an allergic reaction, a near-drowning, birth injury, genetic disorder or accident.

We regret that we are unable to fund requests which embrace the autism spectrum since it is supported by many local and national charitable initiatives.
