We are thrilled to share a milestone moment for the Nancy Streit Foundation: we have officially selected our first grant recipient!
This is exactly why our foundation was created. Thanks to the incredible generosity of our donors, friends, and community, a child will now receive the vital therapy services they need to learn, communicate, and reach their fullest potential. Nancy Streit dedicated her life to lifting up children and families. With this inaugural grant, her legacy of compassion continues to make a tangible difference - one child, one family, and one opportunity at a time. To everyone who has donated, shared our mission, or cheered us on: thank you for making this possible. This is only the beginning.

Rising Waitlists
Families often encounter very long waitlists, especially for behavioral therapy, delaying critical interventions during a child’s most formative developmental years.
Insurance Limitations
Standard insurance coverage frequently caps essential therapy sessions, leaving families with the impossible burden of funding necessary ongoing care.
Financial Barriers
The costs of speech and ABA therapies create a divide, where high-quality interventions are often only accessible to those who can afford it.
Life-Long Impact
Timely access to professional care is not just a medical service; it is a life-changing opportunity that empowers a child’s future voice and mobility.

to therapy for our grant recipients"
