Support Ellie
Many people have reached out asking how they can support Ellie beyond kind words and encouragement.
This space shares how support can make a real difference — both for Ellie and for other children navigating blindness and developmental challenges.
How support helps Ellie
Raising a child with complex medical and developmental needs comes with extra layers that many families never have to think about.
- Therapies and specialized developmental support
- Adaptive toys, tools, and accessibility resources
- Travel to appointments and specialists
- Creating learning environments that work for Ellie’s world
Every bit of support helps create opportunities for Ellie to learn, explore, and grow at her own pace.
Supporting families like ours
As this page grows, we also hope to connect a portion of support toward organizations that help blind children and their families across Canada — including groups that provide services, research, and advocacy.
We believe that supporting Ellie can also help create a more accessible world for other children walking a similar path.
A note about Support
A note about support While we continue exploring ways to partner with organizations that support blind children and families across Canada, we’ve also created a fundraiser that directly supports Ellie’s ongoing needs. This fundraiser helps cover medical travel, therapies, accommodations, and the supports that allow Ellie to keep learning and growing at her own pace.
We are deeply grateful for every form of support — whether that’s sharing Ellie’s story, following her journey, or contributing in any way that feels right to you.
