Three core programs are currently in place within The M.O.R.G.A.N. Project. The Gently Used Disability Equipment Exchange Program and Quality of Life Small Grant Program have proven successful in offering critical support to parents caring for their chronically ill children with physical disabilities in the family home.  Our extensive Resources Database contains information and links to other organizations, agencies, funders, and support groups.

Gently Used Disability Equipment Exchange Program

Through the Gently Used Disability Equipment Exchange Program, medical equipment and supplies are made available through The M.O.R.G.A.N. Project to families who would otherwise be unable to obtain the equipment necessary for the care of their medically fragile child.

We accept donations of gently used pediatric medical equipment from individuals and families nationwide whose health conditions no longer require the equipment, or whose children have outgrown the equipment’s size. The items are donated to The M.O.R.G.A.N. Project, and are then advertised as available on our website. Any family who has a need for a particular item can download an application to “adopt” the piece of equipment. Once approved, the item will then be shipped to the family presenting the need.  We also look for corporate sponsors to donate new equipment, as well.

We absorb all the costs associated with donating and adopting this equipment, and there is never a charge to the families.  We also provide receipts for the declared value of these tax-deductible equipment donations.

Please visit our Available Equipment page to see what items are available, how to apply for them, and how to donate equipment to this program

DONATIONS ARE GREATLY APPRECIATED TO HELP SUBSIDIZE THIS PROGRAM.

Quality of Life Small Grant Program

The Quality of Life Small Grant Program was established to provide families of physically disabled children with a wide variety of supports related to their medically fragile child with special needs. Through this program, families may apply for grants that may improve the quality of life of their medically fragile child. Due to limited available funding this year, our 2011 Grant program is providing assistance with support group conference fees, support group travel expenses, and adapted bath and shower chairs.

ALL GRANT APPLICANTS MUST FAMILIARIZE THEMSELVES WITH OUR MINIMUM CRITERIA AND APPLICATION PROCEDURES BEFORE APPLYING!
