CHILD SHOULD BE AT LEAST 2 YEARS OLD
CHECK-IN: We need to have a way for our staff to contact you for updates. It's according to how long your child will be receiving treatments or their stay in the hospital if you know, as to how often we will need updates. We understand you are busy and need to be with your child, so it is necessary that we can either email or text you. We will send check-ups on your child and your assigned Angel and must receive answers to our check-ups. If we send out more than two check-ups with no response, we will have to take the person off the program. Be sure to answer any and all emails with the subject: Angels of Hope 4 U. They may not be from the same address each time, we have volunteers that maybe sending out these check-ups.
We would like for you to notify us if your child is going through a harder time than usual. We will send out a message and your child will get extra angels sending cards and small gifts.
You do NOT have to respond to your assigned angels. Our check-in staff will let your child's angel if anything comes up from your check-ins that you respond to. This way you will only have to check-in with one person and not have several people bothering you. If at any time, you do not feel comfortable or made to feel you must respond, please let us know ASAP, this would include sending your child anything unfit for a child to receive. It is highly important to us to keep our organization suitable for our kidz.
You must be the parents to sign up a child. If you want us to contact a close friend or relative for check-ins or anything we must let you know, you must have their okay but we will need you to okay to give them information.
You will need to give us their name, phone # and email address.
You are to notify us when your child's treatment or stay is over.
Your personal information will be kept private and not shared with anyone outside our organization and only given to those assigned or needing to contact you. This is important to us.
If you decide this program is not for you and your child, please notify us ASAP to remove your child from our list. Please, if you do this, please consider it will take us a day or so to get this information to your angel and they may have already sent out mail to your child, so we couldn't stop all mail immediately.
If you would like to share a picture of your child with us, we will put it on our future picture page with their first name, age and state only. This is strictly voluntarily
You are not to make any direct physical request (items, gift cards, money, etc) of your child's assigned angel.
We may, without notice, remove anyone from the program for any reason, such as breaking their agreement with us.
You understand your child will receive weekly mail from our volunteer angels.
At any time you contact us, we will try to get back to you as soon as possible. This will not always be immediately because of numerous reasons, one being the volume of contacts from others that we may have received around the time you have contacted us. Also, such as internet down, computer problems or such but hopefully these will not be a problem but we will try our best to get back to you in a timely manner.
