Helping Any Child with Special Needs Reach Their Full Potential
With the capital to help you succeed!
Live each day to the absolute fullest!
In honor of our Liv, we created the Olivia S. Peters Pediatric Therapy Foundation to continue her vision and life’s work of helping any child with special needs reach their full potential. She envisioned utilizing natural settings, such as, local parks, playgrounds and sports courts to create collaborative environments across multiple disciplines to maximize children’s continual growth. It is now our vision to build on this mission and what we’ve learned is her vision was this and so much more. She lived each day to the absolute fullest and, in turn, has inspired others through the @Live.Like.Liv.Challenge to do the same.
“She was literally magic with special needs children.
A type of irreplaceable magic I don’t think I will ever witness again.”
Current Areas of Focus
The Olivia S. Peters Pediatric Therapy Foundation makes funding decisions based on a careful review of an organization’s strategies and how it aligns with our goals. Our funding is intended to strengthen organizations, often through unrestricted support, and to improve their chances of making a measurable difference.
The foundation support spans several areas of interest, clustered around the following categories:
- Advancing programs for children with special needs
- Expanding access to more educational offerings for caregivers, families and caregivers of children with special needs.
- Supporting programs in place that align with the foundation’s goals and priorities.
- Working closely with Two Roads Leadership Project in their efforts to educate young adults on the significance of decision-making. Personally sharing from our experience how those decisions can adversely affect the lives of innocent people along the way.
As the Olivia S. Peters Pediatric Therapy Foundation is continually learning, our strategies within each of these areas will evolve; however, our dedication to applying best practices in philanthropy will remain unchanged.
