R Baby Foundation was established in 2006 to organize and fund efforts to improve the outcomes of medical care for infants, particularly those who contract certain viral infections within the first month of life. The R Baby Foundation is dedicated to helping newborn babies with often-misunderstood viral infections and other infectious diseases receive the highest quality of care and service through supporting education, research, treatment, training and life-saving equipment. R Baby is a 501(c)(3) non-profit charitable organization.

Cookies for Kids' Cancer is committed to raising funds to support research for new and improved therapies for pediatric cancer. Through the concept of local bake sales, Cookies for Kids' Cancer provides the inspiration and support for individuals, communities, and businesses to help fight pediatric cancer.

Baby Buggy® is a non-profit organization dedicated to collecting and distributing gently used and new equipment, clothing and product for infants and young children in need throughout the five boroughs of New York City. With nearly 80 qualified social service providers in our network, Baby Buggy ensures that your donated items go to the mothers, children and families that need these items the most. With the support of volunteers, many corporations and foundations, and hundreds of generous families, we have distributed hundreds of thousands of items to New York City families in need.

A Caring Hand is a not-for-profit granting organization which raises funds to provide educational opportunities and bereavement counseling to children that have lost a parent and therefore, have lost the ability to afford a quality education. We plan on helping such children with educational levels from pre-school to graduate school. Education helps shape our children and prepare them to be our leaders. Without giving children the opportunity to obtain a quality education, we are jeopardizing our children's future. A child that loses a parent has already lost enough without having to lose the opportunity to receive a quality education. If your child qualifies for funding or you know of a child that may qualify, please click here to view the criteria and application.

At Autism Speaks, our goal is to change the future for all who struggle with autism spectrum disorders.

We are dedicated to funding global biomedical research into the causes, prevention, treatments, and cure for autism; to raising public awareness about autism and its effects on individuals, families, and society; and to bringing hope to all who deal with the hardships of this disorder. We are committed to raising the funds necessary to support these goals.

Autism Speaks aims to bring the autism community together as one strong voice to urge the government and private sector to listen to our concerns and take action to address this urgent global health crisis. It is our firm belief that, working together, we will find the missing pieces of the puzzle.

Autism Speaks. It's time to listen.
