George Mark Children’s House

George Mark Children’s House

George Mark Children’s House (GMCH) is a pediatric palliative care center, focusing on quality of life and continuity of care for children who are terminally ill or for those who have chronic medical conditions.  In what is often an overwhelming and isolating situation, the staff partners with families to bring an element of normalcy and joy into their lives.  They provide room and board, medical and psychological services, internet and computers for online services and schooling as well as everyday activities including art, music, movement, and drama.  There is transitional care for children who cannot be cared for at home; they offer respite care so families can have a short break from non-stop care at home; they provide resources that support families at end-of-life in a loving and peaceful environment, and they give ongoing support following the death of their child – all free of cost.  It is able to provide these services thanks to donations from many individual donors, organizations, and foundations.  GMCH is located in San Leandro, CA and serves terminally ill children and their families in all of California. CA AΔK is looking forward to supporting this worthy project.
