Welcome To Utah Kids Foundation

The Utah Kids Foundation is a non-profit 501c3 charity dedicated to providing support to Utah’s special needs families and caregivers. Our mission is threefold: provide information and emotional support to our members, facilitate the sharing and distribution of medical supplies, and run programs and events to provide experiences for special needs families.

The most important part of our mission is that we serve as a place of support and an information treasure trove for Utah’s special needs community.  Through our Facebook forum our members share personal experiences about education options, specific diagnoses, behavior issues, doctor and clinic recommendations, great grants and programs and give general advice.   We also help families find community events and places to go that are special needs friendly and fun .

The second part of our mission is to facilitate the sharing and distributing of medical supplies.  With ever increasing health care costs, we do our best to help ease the burden on families by helping families acquire low or no cost medical equipment and supplies needed for the care of their children with special needs.

To help foster a sense of community, the third part of our mission is inclusive events and programs.  We manage several major programs each year to benefit Utah’s special needs families, including: Unbirthday Parties, the Stuff the Stocking Program, Online Santa visits, a Silent (low sensory) Santa event and an annual Easter Egg hunt.
