How Can You Help the Kids?

At present, TKEN can only accomodate Children's needs in the Chicagoland area of Illinois.

The Kids Equipment Network is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization that relies upon generous donors to provide valuable services to children with special needs. The organization operates on the efforts of volunteers without paid employees.

There are several ways to help the Kids. We hope that people can find it in their hearts to help us through one of the items below.

Monetary Donation The Kids Equipment Network gladly monetary donations to assist with the organization's operating fund. Funds will be used acquiring the necessary equipment, services, and resources to assist our families in obtaining the appropriate adaptive equipment for their children. Additionally, the fund covers operating expenses such as insurance, rent, communication services as well as a host of operating expenses.

Become a volunteer We have a year round need for people to assist in the day to day business of helping the kids.

Wondering what it means to volunteer for TKEN, here is something we have from a new friend to TKEN, JB recently told us. . It tells us all about the value of working with kids.

Lady and Gentlemen,

"Thank you so very much for welcoming me with open arms into your facility and family. It has been longer than I would like to believe that I have headed home with a smile on my face proud to have had such an opportunity. I hope that I am able to support you and your team in the manner in which you all deserve. I have already put on the calendar December 8th and am fully expecting to attend as long as you will have me back. I know this email is a bit deep and cheesy, but I am having a really difficult time finding the words to express my true gratitude. Today reminds me why I do what I do and why I work so hard to be better. A thousand thanks.
