  Bounce Children's Foundation transforms the lives of chronically ill children, and their families, shifting all from surviving to thriving. Bounce Children’s Foundation® (Bounce), a Chicagoland not-for-profit organization, transforms the lives of chronically ill children, and their families, shifting all from surviving to thriving. Offering a variety of ongoing home and community-based programs, Bounce is unique in filling a vital gap in the network of care for the nearly 1 in 5 U.S. children who battle chronic illness. Combating a deep sense of invisibility and extreme isolation, Bounce provides community and connection, fun and friendship, education and resources, hope and encouragement, and a place to belong - until cures are found. Currently, Bounce helps 2,000 members, and has grown at double digit rates every year of its existence. Bounce empowers its members to build the resilience they need to live happier, healthier lives. As one Bounce Dad put it, “Bounce helps families heal!” One hundred percent privately funded; Bounce is offered free of charge. And, while there is no income requirement, many members are low income and all face extraordinary out-of-pocket medical costs.
