Welcome to The Funner
Childhood Organization!
Oh, we know that Funner isn’t a real word (yet), but we think it should be. We also think every child should be safe, secure, and silly.
We are a Michigan-based non-profit committed to building relationships between first responders, counselors, caregivers, and the kids who need to know they matter, need to know they are loved, and need to know the power of laughter.
Spoiler alert: ALL kids fit that description! Why are relationships so important to us? One simple quote says it all:
“Nothing – nothing – has more impact in the life of a child than positive relationships.”
— Peter L Benson, PhD – Creator of the Developmental Assets Framework
What your investment in the Funner Childhood Organization does:
100% of the money we raise goes toward purchasing the Cartoonversation™ materials that form the foundation of our relationship efforts.
If you can donate, that’s wonderful. If not, we want to help you rescue childhood. We have oodles (how is that a word but funner is not?!) of free cartoons, free videos, and free conversation starters – all designed to help you develop those relationships. Please use them to build the most important neighborhood of all: childhood.
