Better Health 4Kids is a local non-profit care program serving low and moderate income families with children. Better Health 4Kids is not an insurance. Our mission is: Fostering access to preventive healthcare and advancing evidence based prevention and education for the optimal health of children and their families. We accomplish our mission through three programs: The Children's Health Fund providing temporary financial assistance to families with uninsured and underinsured children so they may access preventive health care from a Pediatrician; evidence based projects implemented in a Pediatric practice to improve the quality of health care delivery and standardization of practice; and collaboration with academic institutions in the implementation of research to improve the health of children and their families.

The mission of the Andy Roddick Foundation is to work with our community to expand opportunities for young people to learn, thrive, and succeed.  We believe that talent is universal but understand that opportunity is not, and we know opportunity matters. Children in low-income communities experience an opportunity gap – they consistently have less enriching opportunities outside the school day than their better-off peers. To eliminate this gap, the Andy Roddick Foundation develops and invests in effective programs to create meaningful opportunities for children to learn, succeed, and thrive. For more information on how we are expanding opportunities for children and youth, visit our Programs page.
