READY TO HELP A CHILD IN NEED?

Mission

Our mission is to bring joy to children with significant health or life altering conditions and relief to their families by creating happier and more functional living spaces.

What We Do

Welcome Home Angel serves families with children who have chronic conditions, physically debilitating injuries, or significant developmental disabilities who are restricted by limitations in the following areas of major life activity: self-care, mobility, or capacity for independent living. We serve children ages 4-21 in the Chicago area and Wilmington region (New Hanover, Pender, and Brunswick Counties).

We renovate the child’s bedroom (and sometimes other living spaces, depending upon need). Many renovations are primarily aesthetic to enrich the environment where the child spends so much time and calls their own, but other renovations are major, to include door widening, handicap accessible bathrooms, and ramps. We also do a makeover of any siblings’ bedrooms so they don’t feel left out.

We respect the privacy and confidentiality of all information that we receive about each family, whether we accept their case or not.
