Financial Assistance for Euro-Peds Therapy

If you need more information on applying to the Europ-Ped's program, take a look on our How to Apply page for help!

Euro-Peds intensive therapy should not be cost-prohibitive for children who need it. With this in mind, there are several ways to obtain financial assistance for Euro-Peds therapy.

  1. The North Oakland Foundation, an independent nonprofit charity, has established the “Adopt a Euro-Kid” scholarship fund. Families can apply for a scholarship which is a matching-funds grant of up to $1500 per treatment session.

    Led by a dynamic group of business, medical, civic and community leaders, the North Oakland Foundation has supported Euro-Peds since its founding in 1999, when it helped fund the initial build out of the Euro-Peds clinic. The Foundation has also assisted with a number of targeted grants. Its goal is to help underinsured children get the Euro-Peds therapy they need. However, the North Oakland Foundation needs your help and donation in order to make the program work.

    For more information on how you can make a financial contribution or to offer other assistance to Euro-Peds, please contact the Foundation at 248-857-7096, foundation@dhofm.com, or their web site at www.northoaklandfoundation.org.

    The North Oakland Foundation is a 501(c)3 tax-exempt organization and all donations are tax deductible as allowed by law. All donors receive an end-of-year statement and explanation of tax deductibility each January. Please contact your tax advisor for additional information.

  2. Doctors’ Hospital of Michigan offers a way for families to set up an account for their child and have individuals and organizations contribute to their particular child’s therapy costs at Euro-Peds. This program is called the DHM Named Account Program.
