Angela's House Receives Generous Gift

As last year came to a close Angela's House looked at the many items that insurance or Medicaid would not cover for our children. This includes the children living at home with their parents in the community or at Angela's House.

It is a frustrating and tedious task to walk through the maze of insurance requests to end up no closer than when you started. Many of the families rightfully so get very frustrated that equipment or medical supplies that are needed for their children’s care would not be covered. It is tragic that these children should go through such an endeavor. The case managers of Angela's House continue their efforts to find a way to get funding for these crucial services. The efforts continue with outreach into our community to reach out for support of fundraised dollars to purchase some of these essential supplies. Many times the parents are left with the financial burden of purchasing the needed equipment.

It was an exciting day to see a special company step forward to help with the most expensive item on our wish list. Gregory Cuneo, Chairman of HRH Construction Corporation handed Bob Policastro a generous check of $12,000 to pay for new specialized beds needed for Angela's House. Bob is shown receiving the check and thanking Mr. Cuneo for this generous donation. It is so fantastic when people in our community reach out to help our children. Donations like this allow us to care for our children in the special way that they deserve. Thank you Mr. Cuneo and HRH Construction Corp.

Support Us

The greatest gift we can give is one that helps others. Your donations will allow us to help defer the financial burden our families experience with the day to day needs each child has. We can help families purchase medical supplies, special food supplements, medical care, therapeutic equipment and more. Thank you for taking our children in to your heart.
