Kosair Charities Committee Inc

At Kosair Charities, we’re working to create better tomorrows for all of our Kosair Kids®, like Wesley. Wesley was a happy and active toddler, developing like other children his age. But at three years old his developmental progress slowed dramatically. He couldn’t put on weight and his speech development completely halted. Doctors eventually termed his condition failure to thrive. That’s when Wesley’s parents were told he would need private speech therapy twice per week at a center an hour away.

Wesley’s parents didn’t know what to do. The family’s insurance wouldn’t cover the cost for the therapy sessions and they couldn’t afford them on their own. That’s when they turned to Kosair Charities.

With the help of donors like you, Kosair Charities worked with the family and the center to ensure Wesley was able to attend all of the therapy sessions he needed. Today Wesley is seven years old. He continues to receive therapy – now both speech and occupational therapy – four times per week. Progress is slow but steady. Wesley’s mother says “Kosair Charities actually gives me hope. If we didn’t have Kosair Charities, I don’t know what we would do.”

Today, you can help Wesley and other children like him get the treatment and support they need to reach their fullest potential. Make a donation today and give kids like Wesley a better tomorrow!
