THE one thing worse than being told your child has a disability

Is being told nothing can be done

Who we are

THE GROW FOUNDATION is a group of parents who seek to help other families in need of support. The Foundation began with one mother’s desire to help another, and has snowballed into an organization promising to give hope to many.

How we help

GROW FOUNDATION offers financial support to parents who wish to pursue a path which is not supported by traditional disability funds, or whose private health cover does not support enough of what they wish to do.

Stories

Alyssa

Allyssa started the IAHP program – for well children – the day she was born. We were then very surprised when Allyssa did not meet her developmental milestones.

Elizabeth

Beth was 2 weeks old when we found Naturally Better on the internet. This book was a great inspiration and introduced us to all of the therapies we are currently doing.

Gryffin

Gryffin arrived at 38 weeks in a peaceful birth at home. We were completely unprepared for the news that Gryffin had Down syndrome – we didn’t even know what this meant.

Hudson

Hudson was born prematurely and suffered chronic reflux for the first 10 months of his life. Between 11 and 16 months we spent many hours at the hospital and with specialists.
