Did you know that the TLC Clinic at SafeHaven Shelter is a cozy, on-site medical hub where kids get free check-ups, medicine, and real care without ever leaving our doors? I’m Shari, and I want to share Alex’s story—because this spring, children like Alex, and our TLC Clinic at SafeHaven Shelter, need you more than ever.
Why the TLC Clinic at SafeHaven Shelter Matters
Every child who comes to stay with us is seen first at the TLC Clinic at SafeHaven Shelter. For some, it’s the first medical visit they’ve had in years. During that very first check-in, we catch hidden issues—like asthma, infections, or dental problems—so kids start their stay healthy and safe.
When 17-year-old Alex arrived, he’d stopped laughing to hide the pain of a hernia. Our on-site nurse spotted it immediately and arranged a surgery he couldn’t have accessed anywhere else. A week later, I watched Alex sprint down the hall and throw his head back in laughter. His mom gave me the biggest hug and whispered, “Thank you.” I’ll never forget that moment.
Because of you, our medicine cabinets are stocked, our nurse is on call, and the TLC Clinic at SafeHaven Shelter stays open every single day. You make it possible to bandage a scrape, give a flu shot, or offer a comforting smile to the next child in need.
Spring is here, and potential funding cuts from Washington, DC, put our clinic at real risk. Every dollar you give now means immediate care for kids who’ve already faced too much. That’s why we need your donation today more than ever.
Will you help our TLC Clinic at SafeHaven Shelter this season?
Your gift means healing right now—and a lifetime of laughter ahead.
Thank you for being the reason Alex…and so many more…get to be healthy kids again.
