14th year Anniversary of Walk With Me! And 30th anniversary for me at Easter Seals!  Looking forward to great things this year! Please support Team Easter Bunnies to ensure that happens! 

The struggle is still real – groceries, gas and pretty much everything is at an all-time high. Individual donations were very down, but are starting to come back up but making your donation even that much more important.  Every single dollar counts and with your help we will hit the 1 million mark!

Our 14th annual Walk With Me Houston is April 12th at the Houston Zoo. Join our Team – the Easter Bunnies, walk, donate and spread the word and let’s have fun doing it!

The funds we raised last year allowed our 200+ staff to do incredible work for 15,000 families with children with disabilities, veteran and military! Our service numbers continue to be staggering and I am so proud of what we continue to accomplish.

Disability is not just a person who is confined to a wheelchair- It’s a growing population of young boys diagnosed with autism, a friend who has epilepsy, and it is your great aunt living with Alzheimers. Our lives are touched by it every day. Demand for our services continues to grow; funding continues to decrease. Your donation means your neighbor whose baby was born prematurely, your cousin whose 2 year old needs a little help with speech, and your closest friend whose baby was just diagnosed with a developmental delay can all get that little extra bit of help to catch up to their peers.

On a daily basis, I get the privilege of seeing these babies, children and adults learn to overcome, learn to use the tools that were given them and learn to become independent. Your support means their success! Thank you in advance - I appreciate it and I'll keep you posted on our team progress. If you cannot walk with us, please consider donating, ANY amount helps and help please help us spread the word in your circle.  Love, Kelly

Kelly Klein, Development Director, Easter Seals Greater Houston.

How can YOU help? Register to walk or make a donation to support my fundraising efforts.

Why do I need your support? According to the U.S. Census Bureau, 1 in 5 Americans lives with a disability. These are our family members, neighbors, coworkers, and friends. Join me as I walk alongside Easter Seals clients, therapists, donors, and thousands of others at Walk With Me. You will make a huge difference in the life of a person with a disability – an investment with overwhelming returns!

Easter Seals Greater Houston is a fiscally responsible organization and one of the most efficient charities in Texas, with $0.92 of every dollar going directly to client services in Houston.
