About Casey Cares Foundation: The Casey Cares Foundation provides ongoing, uplifting programs with a special touch to critically ill children and their families. In 2000, Casey Cares began by helping five Baltimore families all dealing with the same devastating truth — a child diagnosed with a life threatening illness. Today, our unique programs give hope and support to more than 400 families each year in times of great uncertainty. As our organization grows, we remain committed to providing customized, uplifting activities not just once a lifetime or once a year, but many times throughout a child’s illness and even a year beyond. Headquartered in Baltimore, Md., the Foundation’s reach includes Virginia, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, West Virginia, Delaware and Washington, D.C. Map
