One Sparrow understands the importance of community partnerships that “share knowledge, resources, strengths, passion, and encouragement with families who are left feeling distraught and alone in the midst of hardship.” Since 2013, One Sparrow has been successful in raising awareness locally, donating funds for durable medical equipment, basic medicine, education, and educational enrichment programming for hundreds of children whose families lack the resources.
