What is MSNF

MSNF received its charitable status in 2015 and was created specifically to help under-privileged children receive special treatments, therapy, and services that they so need. MSNF is dedicated to improving the quality of life for children with special needs. We are highly committed to filling a void in our community to ensure that these children receive the specialized services, treatments and therapies they require. We rely on donations from individuals, companies, organizations and foundations to help with our mission and goals.

Mission

Our mission Is to ensure that under privileged children with special needs and their families receive the financial support and resources to afford the necessary therapy, enabling these children to reach their full potential and live happier lives.

MSNF relies on people like you to help make a difference in the lives of these children and their families.

Your generosity allows us to achieve our mission of helping all children with special needs. These funds will be applied to ABA, Speech, Physio and Occupational Therapy.

Children with special needs require a minimum of at least one hour of therapy per week to help reach their full potential. Your support and generosity will allow us to help low income families get the necessary therapy.

Please help us to make this wonderful organization a place to help children with special needs.

IMPROVING CHILDREN'S LIVES THROUGH THERAPY

HAS YOUR CHILD BEEN DIAGNOSED WITH A DISABILITY? LET US HELP YOU HELP THEM!

As A Parent, Ensuring That Your Child Be Given The Best Start In Life Is The Highest Priority. This Priority Is No Different For A Parent Of A Special Needs Child. Unfortunately Wait Times For Special Therapies And Services Are Very Long. Families Can Wait Up To 12 Months To Get A Diagnosis And Then Have To Wait Another 18 Months Depending On That Diagnosis.

The key to success is early intervention and the fastest route for help is in the private sector but costs associated with providing early intervention to improve the quality of life for the child can be overwhelming for parents without the financial means.

Parents are committed to giving their child what he or she needs to advance but cannot afford the costs of a therapist. The average therapy rates are up to $150 per hour, this is where MSNF comes in and helps make a difference in the lives of these children and their families.

MSNF can assist you with the following service:

Family Services

MSNF supports families by helping them navigate government funding options, locate financial resources, access CLSC services and respite care, and find specialized camps and community programs. We also provide one-on-one family support and advocacy to ensure each child receives the care they deserve.

Treatment plans vary based on individual needs and may range from one hour per week to several hours as required. Every child and family is unique. A dedicated case worker works closely with each family to identify their specific needs and create a personalized support plan.
