Noah’s Children

Category : Mission & Values

“The art of caring for a child with a life-threatening illness means not just adding days to life, but adding life to that child’s day.”

- Dr. Bob Archuleta, Founder and Medical Director of Noah’s Children

How do we find peace in the midst of sorrow? When faced with the worst, how can families losing a child to a terminal illness be comforted, supported and holistically cared for? It is the mission of Noah’s Children to help “the last chapter of life be a painless one.”  This moving video is lovingly shared in support of  families and caregivers who are “paralyzed with the very idea of young life shortened.”

Noah’s Children employees and volunteers work tirelessly to bring comfort and compassionate care to children who are terminally ill and their families. Many of the services provided are not reimbursable, so philanthropic efforts provide essential funding.
