MUMS National Parent-to-Parent Network is a non-profit 501 (c) (3) charitable organization for families of children with rare disorders or medical conditions or chromosomal abnormalities. Some of our children have terminal illnesses or life-threatening conditions.
Parents are matched or sent a list of other parents whose children have the same or similar diagnosis. MUMS publishes a quarterly newsletter, the Matchmaker.
MUMS operates only on donations. Many of our families cannot afford to donate and MUMS provides newsletters and the matching service for free. No one is turned away or expected to donate.
With today's declining economy and the lack of quality health care services and sufficient insurance, fewer and fewer parents can afford to donate.
Often one parent must quit their profession and stay home to care for the child.
We need the help of more fortunate caring people who can afford to donate to help our families feel supported and not so alone.
There are charities that collect money in the name of our children yet do not really help our families. MUMS provides a valuable service and truly gives our families the most important thing they need: contact with other families who really understand what they are going through and can provide support and helpful advise to each other in order to deal with the unique situations these families face. Through our networking program we have literally saved the lives of children.
