It's that time of year! Please join us in helping some of our youth and their families have a wonderful, wish-filled holiday! A little help at holiday time is a true gift to our client families. You can send a donation and DFYF volunteers will do the shopping. Or you can adopt one of our families and we will provide you with their "wish list".

Thank you to all who attended and supported our State of the Child Luncheon! We enjoyed youth performances and we were moved by some of the stories shared by our clients and their families. Thank you to our 2016 Presenting Champion Sponsor American Electric Power, Leadership Sponsor Nationwide, and Benefactor Sponsors Honda of America Mfg, Inc. and L Brands Foundation.

Parker Lee Foundation did it again! PBR10k’16 was incredible! Thank you for the $25,000 check delivered onstage to DFYF’s CEO Duane Casares. On behalf of the youth and families we serve, a huge thank you to PLF and all who supported this wonderful event!
