“When I received a teddy bear from Nathaniel’s Hope, it felt so comforting…. It was unexpected at a moment that I really needed something. It had just come in and my daughter says, ‘Look mom, I have a teddy bear, look,’ and right now she has a name for it, her dad’s name, ‘Hector’ [who just had a heart attack] and it’s really been a blessing.”  -VIP MOM

Proof of disability that is accepted includes 1^st page of an IEP, 504 Plan, or IFSP. Also, any Doctor’s/Therapist’s letter/note with the child’s full name, birth date, and some kind of diagnosis.
   1. If the registration page is not accepting your documents, they may be too big. You can email your proof of disability to [email protected] if this issue occurs
