The K21 Health Foundation recently awarded $750,000 in grant funding to Joe’s Kids to lead the way in support of the purchase, renovation and expansion for the new Joe’s Kids location at 1692 W. Lake St., Warsaw.
Joe’s Kids is a nonprofit pediatric rehabilitation clinic that provides physical therapy, occupational therapy, speech therapy and tutoring services to help each child reach their maximum level of independence, according to a provided news release. Joe’s Kids moved to their new property in January to allow them to continue to grow their services to the children of Kosciusko County and beyond.
“Joe’s Kids has been serving our community’s children and families for over 10 years now. We’ve been proud to partner with them every step of the way,” stated Rich Haddad, K21 president and CEO. “For K21 to step forward to provide a lead gift in helping them grow and be more effective in their mission is frankly an honor, and our board was excited to make this commitment!”
“We are blessed to have the support of our friends at K21 who have partnered with us from the beginning to meet a need for our community's children and have now led the way in this building project,” said Rebecca Bazzoni, executive director of Joe’s Kids. “Our new campus will serve as Joe's Kids forever home providing us opportunity for growth and expansion for years to come. We are grateful for K21's continued support of our mission as we invest in the long-term needs of our community's children.”
