HEARTSPRING - KANSAS STATE COUNCIL PHILANTHROPIC PROJECT


HEARTSPRING

Supported by the Kansas State Council since 1949
Heartspring's mission in partnership with parents professionals and the community, is to help children with special needs grow and learn on a path to a more independent life. ESA helps to promote the programs and mission of Heartspring by donating their dollars, gifts-in-kind and personal time. In addition our organization holds the "Day of Love" and Prom, which entertain and gives the children attending Heartspring opportunities and experiences they might not otherwise have. Heartspring’s belief is that all children can learn, adapt and succeed with appropriate levels of support in a happy, safe and nurturing environment. Heartspring pursues this mission through the Heartspring School, Heartspring Pediatric Services, Heartspring World Reach and Heartspring CARE (Community of Autism Resources and Education). Heartspring School serves students ages 5-21 with multiple disabilities including autism, mental retardation, Down syndrome, visual/hearing impairments and behavior disorders. Both residential and day school services are available. Heartspring Pediatric Services offers outpatient physical, occupational, speech-language therapies, hearing services, behavior intervention, educational testing for children, and free developmental screenings.
To make a gift to Heartspring click the "GIFT" button.  If you make a donation THIS way be sure to fill out the contact form below to tell the 2nd Vice President that you made a donation and in what amount so you get the proper credit since the donation goes directly into the Council's bank account.

THE TIME TO ADOPT-A-HOME / CLASSROOM IS NOW!
Thank you for previously supporting the Adopt-a-Student Giving Program at Heartspring. Many of our students live away from home, and receiving gifts from organizations like yours is a way to brighten their day. We want to thank you for all the smiles you put on our student’s faces. Sadly some students were left un-adopted so we decided to change the program to Adopt-A-Home/Classroom!

Save those General Mills box top labels and turn them in. 
DON’T THROW THOSE LABELS IN THE TRASH!
The “Labels for Cash” program continues to expand each year. And putting those labels in the trash is like throwing away CASH that could go to Heartspring. They only accept General Mills Box Tops!
In addition to ESA's support of Heartspring through the Adopt a Home/Classroom Program, Box Tops for Education, Day of Love in February, we assist with other Heartspring events.
