Our prayers are with Baylee for relief from her terrible pain. Thank you to all who donate to help make this all possible, we are truly grateful.

Isn’t he as cute as can be. This is Everett a Danielle’s Gift recipient. Everett was diagnosed with Fox G1 and finds it difficult to sit without being held. Here he is in his new P-Pod chair that helps him to comfortably sit on his own and enjoy his favorite cartoons. We would not have been able to help make this possible for Everett without all of your support. Another example of how you are all making a difference. On behalf of Danielle’s Gift and our recipients THANK YOU!

Anna is a past and current recipient of Danielle’s Gift. She’s battled cancer, side effects of radiation treatments and is now battling cancer caused by the treatments. She recently had a very major surgery and will be in the hospital receiving therapy and chemotherapy for the next six months. We were honored to be able to provide Anna with a laptop computer so that she can FaceTime her siblings, family, and friends and continue school. She also gets to watch movies while she’s resting. Thank you so much to all who donate. We would not be able to help these precious children like Anna without your support. Please keep sweet Anna in your prayers for complete healing.

Meet Danielle’s Gift recipient Bronson…Bronson was born deaf and at 9 months had bilateral cochlear implant surgery and was implanted. At 10 months he was activated. He has been an inspiration to his family and has taught his mom patience, perseverance  strength and unconditional love in 5 short years. The equipment for continued use of the implants is very expensive and periodically needs to be replaced. Danielle’s Gift was happy to help little Bronson continue to have full function of his implant by helping to replace faulty equipment. Thank you to all who donate to help make this possible!!

Meet Danielle’s recipient Micah…Here is his story…”Our son Micah was born on May 30, 2017 along with his twin brother Isaiah. One month after birth, we had to amputate both his feet due to a rare accidental blockage of his aorta to his lower extremities. He is currently in therapy with prosthetics, but not mobile. We would like to purchase a Scooot wheelchair, from Firefly, for him so he may have access to roam around outside independently and keep up with his siblings and cousins. We pray your amazing organization may be able help us cover the cost of the Scooot wheelchair as we pursue to purchase.” Thanks to the support of all of our donors we were able to provide the wheelchair needed for Micha’s independent movement.

In December we took Christmas gifts to the children at Madera Children’s Hospital. While we were there we mentioned how much Danielle loved to read. They told us about a “book buddy” program they have for the children in the hospital and when they leave they let them take their book home with them. We told them to let us know if they needed books for the children and here they are 32 books to be delivered to Madera. We are so happy to help children have access to books and reading especially at difficult times in their lives. Thank you to all who support Danielle’s Gift that make this all possible…you are all heroes!!!

Merry Christmas to Hutton House. Hutton House is a place for runaway kids between the ages of 13 and 17 years old. They offer services for these kids, some of which are there because of abuse. Danielle’s Gift has donated 78 hoodies, items for the house so they can do laundry, wash their hair, etc.. We have also donated backpacks filled with hats, gloves, toothpaste, toothbrush and other personal items they may need once they leave the house. They can take a backpack with them which will give them someplace to hold their personal items. Thank you to Donna Botto, Scott McCaskill, and Sanmar for your sweatshirt donations. Also, thank you Emily Doyle for your extreme coupon shopping for us. Emily was able to purchase 362 items for us for $274.00, unbelievable.
