Host Families

Healing the Children seeks families to provide a temporary home, love and support to children who come to St. Louis for medical care from other countries without a parent. Without these special families, HTC could not exist. Learn how your family can Become a Host Family. read more

Support Families

A Support Family plays a smaller, yet vital role, to the HTC child during their medical stay. Ideally, we match each Host Family with one or two Support Families (or individuals) who commit to playing a consistent, supportive role while the child is in our care. Examples of support would be taking the child to some of their doctor/physical therapy appointments, visiting the child while in the hospital, or giving the host parent a day off once a week. read more

Airline Award Tickets

We are greatly in need of frequent flyer award tickets to help fly HTC children to St. Louis who do not qualify for donated tickets from various airline award programs. This is a wonderful way to collaborate with us to make a direct impact on the life of a child! read more

Fundraising/Special Events

The more funds HTC can raise, the more children we can help. Right now, our largest fundraiser is our annual Golf Tournament read more, which requires a great deal of planning and many volunteers. We are seeking active volunteers willing to serve on various fundraising committees to help support our programs.
