This El Paso Giving Day, your gift goes directly to children. It helps a toddler take their first steps, a child with autism say their first words, and parents find the resources they need to help their family thrive.
With your support, we’ll continue what we’ve done for more than seven decades: walk alongside families, celebrate every milestone, and make sure every child in El Paso has the chance to reach their fullest potential.

Early Childhood Intervention (ECI): A statewide program that provides services for babies from birth to 36 months with developmental delays, disabilities, or a medical diagnosis that impacts development. PdN Children’s ECI supports families with various therapies and services to help their child reach their developmental milestones.
