THE DANNY FUND is a 100% volunteer-run organization founded in Pelham in 1993. Our mission is to provide families of critically ill or injured children (under the age of 21) with financial, emotional, and/or advocacy assistance during their period of crisis. Our goal is to support the diverse needs of these families so that their child’s care can remain their primary focus.

We are a non-denominational organization that does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, religion or belief, sex or gender identity, national origin, age, disability, marital status, or political affiliation.

Danny Fund Kids come from all walks of life. They can be as young as day-old infants or be close to reaching adulthood. They can come from any cultural, ethnic or linguistic background. Referrals of families to The Danny Fund can come from a variety of sources: hospitals, family friends, schools, or other nonprofit organizations. Our major source of revenue is our annual fundraiser.
