Description
Isaac's Friends is a 501(c)3 non-profit charity incorporated in South Carolina. Our initial service area is the Greenville, SC region with plans to rapidly expand throughout the southeast and eventually across the country. Where ever there are children in hospitals, we want to be there to help.
Our services involve using laptop computers and age appropriate games to take into local hospitals where teens and children are under long term care. Volunteers talk and play games with the children for one to two hours per visit depending on the patients' conditions. The purpose is to provide love and care through attention, socializing, and play. The volunteers help bring some normalcy to the children's lives amidst abnormal and often depressing situations. We also support the family by providing services to the local Ronald McDonald Houses, helping to relieve some of the stress associated with caring for a hospitalized child and giving much needed hope, encouragement and support.
