Make a difference

We can’t make this go away,
but we can make their journey more gentle and memorable

Named after our beautiful boy Hunter Alfred Stratton, we provide financial and emotional support to children with life-limiting illnesses and their families. We help them create moments of fun and laughter—moments that turn into beautiful, lifelong memories of a love that will never fade.

These families don’t need tears. They need emotional, financial, and practical support. They need to live for the moment. Can you help?

Try to imagine what it’s like having a kid in palliative care. If you have a child of your own, it’s easy to see how challenging this reality is for both the children and their families.

But take it from us: these families don’t need anymore tears. But they do need our help. And we need your help to make that happen.

When you support the HAS Foundation, you make a direct impact on the lives of these families, an impact they feel and benefit from as they cope with these difficult circumstances. Now is your chance to become their Superman the way Hunter was Superman to us. Now is your chance to help these families live for a moment and love for a lifetime.
