Making Progress - Assisting One Child At A Time
We measure our success by the number of children whose lives are touched by our efforts each year. Houston Children’s Charity is served by its Founder, President & CEO Laura Ward, and a steadfast Board of Directors who carefully steward the resources of our donors to efficiently and effectively meet the needs of Houston’s children.
With an ambitious goal to leave no legitimate request for assistance unanswered, we seek to expand our base of support through dedicated sponsors and committed volunteers to strengthen our ability to help children. Our supporters come from all walks of life and understand that caring means giving of themselves. There are numerous ways to be a part of our work. Explore our programs and events to see how you would like to become involved and contact us today!

✨ MEET JOSHUA AGUILAR MIRANDA! ✨

THANK YOU to THE FANT FOUNDATION WITH LOVE for your incredible GENEROSITY and for helping us improve the quality of life for Greater Houston’s underprivileged, abused, and disabled children who have otherwise been left behind! ❤️
Joshua has two brothers, Wesly (18) and Neymar (13). They share a friendly and loving relationship and enjoy playing together. Joshua’s favorite food is chicken, and he enjoys listening to Christian music. A back massage always makes him smile. His favorite show is Mickey Mouse. One funny thing about Joshua is that he likes to put his feet in his mouth. His goal is to become independent one day. He enjoys soccer and prefers toys that have music or interesting textures. Joshua is most comfortable when sitting and is especially stimulated in that position. One thing he does not like is putting on his shoes. 🌟
STAY TUNED as we introduce the remaining van recipients in the weeks ahead! ✨

Kevin, lovingly called Jr, has two brothers—Josiah (7) and Malachi (3 months). Josiah recognizes and calls out to his brothers, while baby Malachi is already beginning to smile and engage with them. Jr is primarily G-tube fed but prefers puréed fruits. He loves music, especially lullabies sung directly to him, and enjoys watching Bluey. He lights up during playtime and loves kisses all over his face. Jr enjoys sensory toys he can chew on, especially those with lights, music, or movement. He doesn’t like being cold or woken from naps. His goal is to continue growing and reaching milestones at his own pace, surrounded by love and support. 💙

Olivia is adored by her older siblings, Emilia (15) and Jonathan (13), who love reading to her, pushing her wheelchair, and giving her lots of snuggles. She loves cheesecake and has a big passion for music, especially Taylor Swift, Bruno Mars, and the music from KPop Demon Hunters. A true daddy’s girl, she lights up when he gives her kisses with his bushy beard.Olivia enjoys being outdoors, feeling the breeze on her face, and loves water—baths, swimming, and ocean waves. She especially enjoys musical toys, particularly her roll-up keyboard. One funny thing about her is that she’ll pull a blanket over her head when she’s avoiding something she doesn’t like. 💖
