Grant Requests for Home Modifications

Happy 2 be Home provides support for families who need home modifications that allow their chronically ill or medically fragile children to live safely and comfortably at home. Every situation is unique, and we work closely with families to determine what improvements may be possible based on need, scope, and available funding.

We regularly support home modifications such as:

• Wheelchair lifts and ramps
• Generators for medical equipment
• Bedroom remodeling
• Bathroom retrofitting
• Stair and doorway access solutions
• Basement or garage conversions

Please note: Each project is evaluated individually. Acceptance into our program does not guarantee approval or full funding for the specific modification requested.

We currently assist families who:

• Own their home, and
• Have a chronically ill child, school-age or younger (up to the 21st birthday at the end of the school year), and
• Live within a 25-mile radius of Gilbertsville, PA, including:

           - Northern Chester County

           - Southeastern Berks County

           - Northern Montgomery County

           - Southern Lehigh County
