TTFF is committed to the guaranteed safety of the children we serve.  The hardships that families are enduring because of the economic fallout from COVID, directly threatens the kids in our communities.  TTFF has hunkered down to help those families with medically fragile kiddos maneuver threatening situations like food and housing insecurities.. Although many of our programs will continue to operate virtually in 2021, we still need your help! Below are some of the ways that you can support TTFF and the children and families we serve.

Everyday Ways To Help

Below are some year round ways you can get involved with TTFF. Each and every one makes a difference!

Fund a Wellness Program

You can help a child living with chronic & life-threatening illnesses, developmental differences or youth-at-risk by sponsoring a camper for $500. Help us gift the magic of camp by donating a week of fun and respite free of charge to their families.

Donate

AmazonSmile

Donate .5 percent of nearly every purchase on Amazon to the charity of your choice. Approximately one million charities — including small organizations like us — participate in this program. Click on Smile.Amazon.com, then in the search box at the bottom of the page, enter The Taylor Family Foundation. The shopping experience looks the same as usual on your screen, with a note in the top left that says “Supporting,” followed by the name of your charity, so you’re reminded of the donations Amazon makes for you as you buy.    

A Charitable Way to Shop Online

When you shop online through GoodShop.com up to 30 percent of each purchase you make will be donated to your favorite cause! GoodShop’s online mall includes your favorite brands, including Amazon, Target, Gap, Best Buy, iTunes, Macy’s and Barnes & Noble and more. Best of all, you pay the same amount for your purchases as you would shopping online through each retailer directly. To get shopping, visit www.goodshop.com.

Launch a Drive

Become a TTFF ambassador and help us spread our mission of serving children with life threatening and chronic illnesses, developmental differences and youth at risk throughout Northern California. Help us spread the word through golf tournaments, private events, Kiwanis and Rotary meetings, resource fairs, walks and runs and more!

Instead of gifts for his 13th birthday, Nic collected over 330 Lego sets for our campers and friends in the hospital. Nic’s program, Legos for Kids, has donated over 1,500 Lego sets for medically fragile children throughout Northern CA.
