Need some inspiration to lace up those shoes and walk/run? View Hannah's story below. Hannah was born with a rare condition, Larsen Syndrome, affecting all her joints and limiting her mobility. When she was adopted from China in 2019, her adoptive parents discovered it was Hannah’s dream to walk on her own. Thanks to the incredible generosity of donors, UHCCF awarded Hannah a medical grant to help with the cost of surgery and therapy for her legs. Watch her incredible transformation here.

How Your Support Makes a Difference

Every dollar you raise helps UHCCF provide medical grants to great kids like Aidan.

Thanks to a UHCCF medical grant, Minnesota native, Aidan was able to receive a specialized racing wheelchair that allowed him to pursue his love of racing. With it, Aidan has won a State Championship medal, numerous Junior National medals, and was part of the 2019 UHCCF Grandma’s Marathon Team!
