Dear Friends of Conner's Cause for Children,

​

All of us at Conner's Cause for Children would like to wish all of our long time friends and supporters a very Happy & Healthy 2023. 

​

This New Year's message is a bittersweet one for all of us. 

 

We at Conner's Cause for Children are beginning the new year with an ending. After over twenty-five years of providing services to thousands of families in three Southern California counties, Conner's Cause for Children is dissolving as a proud non-profit organization. 

​

The decision to cease operations was a very difficult one for each member of our Board and all of us at Conner's Cause. However, a number of factors, including my decision to retire and the continuing challenges of sustaining a small non-profit, made it clear that it was time. We are no longer accepting your generous donations and our plan is to distribute our remaining funds to as many families as we can in the next few weeks.  

​

We are also working on a list of other income and diagnosis based resources which may be available to Conner's Cause families and will be posting those on a special page soon. 

​

For those of you who have supported us for over twenty-five years, please know we could not have done what we do for so long without you!

​

Thanks to you, today there is a family somewhere in our area who doesn't have to worry about making a co-payment for a clinic appointment, treatment, test or medication.

 

Thanks to you, today there is a family somewhere in our area who doesn't have to worry about having enough gas money to drive their child to the hospital for treatment three times a week for the next six weeks.

 

Thanks to you, today there is a family somewhere in our area who doesn't have to worry about running out of the special formula or nutritional supplements their medically fragile child needs to survive.

 

Thanks to you, today there is a family somewhere in our area who doesn't have to worry about bringing a sick child home from the hospital to a house with no lights or heat or food in the cupboard.

 

Thanks to you, today there is a family somewhere in our area who doesn't have to worry about where to turn when they need a helping hand to take care of their sick child.

 

Since 1995, in memory of a brave little boy named Conner, Conner's Cause for Children has eased the financial burden for thousands of families in our area struggling to find the resources they need to care for their critically ill and injured children.

 

From all of us at Conner's Cause for Children, we would like to wish you and all of your families our warmest regards and our everlasting gratitude for all that you have done for our families throughout the years.
