Mission Statement

The Baby Alex Foundation (www.babyalexfoundation.com) is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization dedicated to supporting the neurological health of children.  In pursuit of this goal, the Foundation raises funds for grants to individuals and organizations engaged in pediatric brain injury research, to include:

  • Brain injury prevention
  • Brain injury rehabilitation
  • Interventions for cognitive, motor and other neurological impairments
  • Patient family and medical staff education


Goals

  • To support research into the causes, preventions and treatments of brain hemorrhaging in infants.
  • To support research into cognitive, occupational and physical therapy for babies and children suffering from brain injuries.
  • To use marketing and outreach to raise awareness of the prevention of premature birth.
  • To establish, through education and workshops, family centered care in hospitals for infants and children suffering brain injuries.
  • To serve as a public warehouse for research abstracts, book titles, lectures and other sources of information useful to researchers, parents and hospitals.

Grants

The Foundation's grant awards will be based on the ability of the proposed activity to accomplish the Foundation's mission of supporting pediatric neurological health. The number of grants and the fiscal amount of those grants will vary, depending on the funds raised by the Foundation each year. Entities interested in applying for a grant may download the grant application and narrative guidelines from the Foundation's website. All applications received by the March 1 deadline will be considered by the Foundation's Grant Review Committee for that year, and awarded based on the award criteria. Those criteria are described in the Grant Application section of the website. Grant applications may be submitted at any time prior to March 1.
