Unrestricted funding comes mainly from personal donations and fundraisers. These monies are vital to adequately fund administrative and fundraising staff, which will allow us to strengthen Texas Parent to Parent’s capacity to help Texas families, while ensuring our sustainability for future generations of families who need our help. If you would like to help, please click the Network for Good button below and follow the instructions: Another option is to become a MONTHLY DONOR - please follow the link to learn more. Texas Parent to Parent will be 8 years old next month. Seven years ago, we had 4 part-time staff members, and 128 families and a few professionals on our mailing list. Now we have 4 full-time and 9 part-time/ contract staff, and our mailing list includes 2,900 families in addition to 600 friends and professionals. We can now provide trained volunteers across the state to match with parents whose children have a new diagnosis. We provide a major parent conference annually, and we are developing our 5th Medical Education Program site for pediatric residents. Eight years ago we were just hatching the idea of a statewide parent to parent program, the only one in Texas, because we believe in the power of parent to parent support. Now we provide support and information to families all across the state. We are proud of how far we have come. But we still have a long way to go. The number of families requesting our services is constantly increasing, and our small staff needs to grow in order to keep up with these requests for help, as well as to provide new services that address the changing needs of families as their children grow from infancy through adulthood. We want to assist more families, develop more programs, hold a bigger conference, hire more staff, and better support administrative staff. THANK YOU FOR HELPING TxP2P!
