Hydrocephalus Support Foundation

This organization does so much for the Hydrocephalus community. From books and bears to dreams come true, college scholarships, camp Hydrocephalus and Hydro Santa. They offer support like no other organization can. Someone living with Hydrocephalus knows they aren’t alone because this organization stays in contact. The help they give is amazing and inspiring in time of need.

Amazing!! So supportive and always there for everyone!!

Hydrocephuls support foundation has brought a smile to my Mickey's face & our Family together with other Hydro Angels we were Blessed the day Sheri & this organization came into our lifes. With Love Maria Suits & Mickey & Family

There isn’t enough time in the world to describe how absolutely amazing this nonprofit is!! They have been extremely helpful in supporting my family from day one and I will be forever greatfull to them!

Hydrocephalus Support Foundation does just what the name implies. It supports people who are affected by the condition of Hydrocephalus. Being fairly newly diagnosed, I was extremely frightened and feeling alone. I had heard about Hydrocephalus. In fact, I had more than heard of it. I had worked for years in nursing on the Medical/Surgical unit at our local hospitals. Having surgery to treat the condition, although it saved my life, it also affected my memory to the point that I was no longer able to work. Stumbling upon the Hydrocephalus Support Foundation while looking for information related to Hydro has been a Godsend. Mrs Burdine and this foundation has supported me so many times when I was in need of emotional support. She’s a wonderful advocate for us living with Hydrocephalus. She understand because she too lives her life with the condition Hydrocephalus. Sheri is a wonderful advocate for us. She has done so much to enrich the lives of her fellow Hydro Warriors She deserves to be recognized for the beautiful, kind woman that she is and for all of the support that she has given to myself and others over the many years.

I have been a volunteer for several years for this organization and the great and touching things that I have seen from Sheri Burdine and this organization is incredible to say the least. I have volunteered for Camp Hydrocephalus many a time and it was so very touching. To see children interact with other children that had the same condition they had is so gratifying. There was even a Father and his son that had Hydrocephalus and they were there sharing stories and having fun with all the others. To have a group of families that had no idea who was who, come together as one big family was tearful. No one had any worries because Sheri Burdine was there to answer any and all questions that she could that might ease a families concern about Hydrocephalus. I too interacted with everyone and I will never forget how much fun I had and will continue to have being a volunteer For Sheri Burdine and her organization.

I learned of Sheri and her amazing efforts in supporting the Hydro community and hydro warriors like me and her yes she is also a hydro warrior herself but my most precious moments happened in 2014 when I was honored with the hydro angel award not only did I get amazing memories package with my son going to WWE meeting Randy Orton going to Disney World but perhaps even more special she paid our way hotel conference and all to Texas to accept the hydro angel award and be surrounded by hydro warriors and hydro families who know and understand my struggle and to hug and thank Sheri herself in person the amount of hope she gave me at that event money can’t buy

I have been a HAOA volunteer for the past 3 years. And oh how this has changed my life!! I live with hydrocephalus and I have seen first hand all the good they have done for the hydro community. I have been a part of giving a hydro miracle and a part of giving help through project daisy, there is no other organization that gives from the heart. I love Sheri and Hydro Angels and I am honored to be a part of it.

My daughter was diagnosed with severe Hydrocephalus when I was still pendant with her. Haoa has been not just a great support when I have had questions or needed virtual hugs, it's connected me to loads off others just like my daughter ave they even donated more to its when we were traveling 500 miles away for cord blood infusions that our insurance wasn't paying for.
Haoa is an amazing organization, we even chose them to donate to for our daughters birthday. It was awesome to give back to a group that I know gives do much.

HAOA is a tremendous organization. They really made us feel welcome, and like we had a family that knew what we were going through. The founder Sheri Burdine is a compassionate, amazing, and generous human being. I've had the pleasure of meeting her and consider myself lucky to call her a friend.

Hydro Angels Over America is a FABULOUS and compassionate organization in spreading awareness and helping families and patients like myself who live daily with the condition of hydrocephalus.

Hydro Angels Over America (HAOA)is a stellar organization, connecting those effected by hydrocephalus while spreading awareness internationally. There are a plethora of facets that are remarkable about HAOA, but I want to touch on one; esprit de corps. HAOA connects people from around the world. The diverse following has allowed my son, wife and I to communicate and learn with a rich group of people. Those who persevere with hydrocephalus are bestowed the title of Hydro Warriors, but everyone a part of HAOA is a warrior; with or without hydrocephalus.

Hydro Angels Over America is a wonderful organization providing support to families and those living with Hydrocephalus. I'm a Hydro mom whose daughter has suffered from Hydrocephalus since she was 8 weeks old. She's now 32 and we fully support this organization. This is a great support group and does outstanding things for those living with Hydrocephalus such as bowling events, camp, college scholarships, walk-a-thons and granting wishes. Sheri Burdine is wonderful. She also has Hydrocephalus and fully understands what others are going through. This is a wonderful organization and I'm proud to be a supporter of this group. May God bless Sheri and Hydro Angels Over America!

Amazing charity! They give Hydro bears, pay costs for hydro families in need, and offer excellent support and knowledge!

This organization is amazing. They do so much for the hydrocephalus community. My daughter is 9 and was born with hydrocephalus. Last year the Hydro Angels granted her Christmas wish and our family felt truly blessed. Always going above and beyond to make Hydro warriors feel special.

Hydro Angels are the best! They're always putting current update info about the condition. They do great things for the communities & always raising awareness. My son Matthew has had hydrocephalus since birth. When he was hospitalized they checked on him through messages. Matthew has also received Christmas presents from them.

It is great to see the ways that they have helped families thru the years

Great organization that is a great support for hydro families and truly cares

HydroAngels is amazing!! The love and support I have received here has been incredible! I received a Christmas package last year, and HydroBear helped me through a tough surgery in August! Thank you to Sheri and all who make HydroAngels possible!!

My family fell on hard times last year. We were shocked to learn both our twins, fraternal boy and girl, had hydrocephalus. Since they've been born we've made countless trips to the hospital. So naturally around Christmas we were worried we wouldn't be able to afford anything for our kids. Hydro angels blessed us by choosing our kids to receive gifts from hydro Santa. Without them I'm not sure what we would have done. Hydro angels shows daily love and works so hard for those young and old affected by hydrocephalus. Thank you!!!!

Hydro Angels is such a wonderful organization!! I cannot say enough about it to truly express how much they go above and beyond to help others. They have been there for me multiple times and I cannot thank them enough. They are more personable than any other organization that I've ever dealt with and that's what separates them above all the others!

I can't say enough about this organization. They have truly been a Blessing to my family. Our sweet daughter who is now 3yrs old was born with severe Hydrocephalus. She was granted one of the Holiday Miracles and got a "rocking rider pony" it's her absolute favorite gift that we will always cherish. Thank you Hydro Angels for all your love and support over the years. You're the BEST!!

When my daughter was born very ill, she acquired Hydrocephalus. I can remember the day very clearly when a doctor came into the PICU room to explain to me what my daughter had and what type of surgery was required. I felt so lost and alone, I thought certainly I am the only one whose child has this. I had so many questions, and one day I found Hydro Angels Over America and Sheri Burdine and I could finally exhale. She was able to answer so many questions I had. HAOA, offered us the ability to meet others just like us and show my daughter that she is not alone. I honestly do not know what I would do had I not found this organization. They continue to be such a great source of information for me and so many others.

Great organization, Sheri does so much for so many while battling her own war with hydrocephalus. We have been to 2 hydro camps and our son has been blessed by her and her organization.

We love our HAOA!! They are family so thankful for all they do we love our hydro bear and books

Hydro Angels Over America is a great organization. We went to support groups in Texas and Sheri, helped my dad and mom so many times. Hospital visits, phone calls, the bowling event, they even helped send my family to Alaska as part of the 2012 Angel of the Year Event. I cannot imagine our life without my dad getting support from Hydro Angels Over America

Hydro Angels Over America walks the walk. They care about their cause!

I just very recently joined this page. Looking forward to being a partof it. My son was born august 3rd 2010, and got diagnosed with hydrocephalus in April 2011.

Well let me first start by introducing myself my name Is Ashley Villanueva I am 20 years old. I have had hydrocephalus since I was a baby. I have had 10 surgeries throughout my life. Anyway I think I was about 16 when I was watching t.v and heard about this wonderful organzation on the news. At that time I was feeling alone,by myself,felt like I was done with life. But then I started to feel hope and started to feel everything was turning around. I first met the hydro president Mrs.Sheri when I was picked for 2012 hydro angels christmas miracle. It was such a blessing and I will always remember that day. Then I ended having surgery and Mrs Sheri and her husband was there visting me in the hospital ,by myside and was there for my parents. I also got to experience hydro camp. Anyways my point to all this is that hydro angels over America is the best organzation!!! They are like family and treat you like if you were one of there own. I wouldnt have it any other way,they are such a blessing!!! I just want to thank the hydro board members and most of all my hydro sis Sheri.

I have a nice who's daughter was born with hydrocephalus. I know things have been a real struggle for them. Hydro angles over America were a true blessing to them at Christmas. There was a car seat they needed. And they graciously let Santa bring her one. With them its always about others. And it's just amazing to me. Thank you all so much for everything yall do for everyone

My son Wesley was born November 12, 2012. He was born with Hydrocephalus. He was born at 24 weeks gestation. He was a micro preemie with a 1 % survival rate. He was in the NICU for 186 days. During that time we lost out on work which put us in a bind at christmas time. I wrote Hydro Angels Over America pleading for help with christmas. And, sure enough Wesley was chosen as one of there kids they helped. They are a God send to us. And amways will be. We spread awareness with them... Thank you HAOA for your support. Shunts quit Wesley doesn't...

Amazing organization that does great things for all WARRIORS!

Finding out our baby has hydrocephalus when he was 4 months old was a complete shock to our family. We were terrified of what our baby would go through as we learned that we were being sent immediately to a children's hospital to have his shunt put in. I learned about Hydro Angels from one of my former students' mom. Her daughter also has hydrocephalus. We have loved the information presented, reading the stories of other hydro Angels, and the sense of belonging to a community we have felt. We never really even knew this "community" was here, but are so happy to have found it!!

My daughter is six and this group has been there with us though all her surgeries so far , and bc of them this we live by the words shuts quit but are Alana does not , It also bc of this group that I can reach out to other people going though what we are and get help and advice thanks for all you do

My niece has hydrocephalus and was chosen for the Hydro Santa gift 2 years ago. This organization is so awesome all the products from the store are great quality also

Having a child with Hydrocephalus is challenging, having an organization like HAOA is a blessing. The resources available and the wonderful people involved with this organization make it second to none. Hydro camp is an amazing opportunity for children with Hydrocephalus. We are blessed to have such a great organization.

We have been with this organization for 3 years now. Amazing we love everything we get todo with this organization. Sheri and everyone that is with hydro angels is amazing .

We were fortunate enough to have been chosen to go to Hydro Camp in 2015.
It was the best experience my daughter and I have had. For the first time in her life, she was surrounded by her peers who also had Hydrocephalus and I was able to see that I wasnt alone as a parent.
We made lasting connections that I will always cherish as will she.
We love Hydro Angels and all they do for the Hydrocephalus community

Our experience at Hydro Camp was one of the most magical time we've had together as a family. To be able to come together with other families fighting hydrocephalus was amazing. Sheri and everyone involved made sure no stone left unturned. I'd highly recommend Hydro Angels of America and Hydro Camp.

Love this made my son know that he's not alone out there

Hydro Angels Over America is an awesome nonprofit organization that helps people like me with Hydrocephalus. I think others should learn more about this organization too. I give Hydro Angels Over America five stars because they are helpful to me and to others who are like me. I enjoy reading other stories about others who have had Hydrocephalus, and enjoy reading the posts that they have shared. One of the many posts I enjoy reading are the ones about people who are like me and have gone through the same things I have gone through too.

HAOA is not only helpful and educationing but it is like family it's encouraging to see all the others that are going through the same thing either themselves or with their children or other loved ones. We love our HAOA family!

HAOA has helped me understand and know what Hydrocephalus is about. The information has given me the knowledge I need to live with my condition. The stories from others has let me know I am not alone. I feel connected.

HAOA has been a wonderful resource and support to our family. What a wonderful organization that does wonderful things for those with hydrocephalus and their families!!!

I am a volunteer for the HAOA, because I suffer from this condition and I don't want others to suffer as well. I wanted to put my time and talents into an organization that would do the most good and HAOA is the cream of the crop when it comes to doing the most good for Hydrocephalus patients and family.

Has a lot of information for many hydrocephalus people like myself. I have a not as common surgery and situation but I have gotten support and help. It is a difficult illness to live with and I enjoy any help I can find. Brilliant nonprofit organization! :)

My great niece has this and it breaks my heart. I hope that they keep searching for a cure.

I My Name Is Chris Sierra! For Many years, I have been trying to find an organization that I felt I am a part of and I can relate to. So one day I am browsing through Facebook and I Find this Page. It Makes feel very important and that I am finally a part of something special. It took the negative feelings I have about my condition and turned it into something positive. I am getting praised, admired and can give advice to many others with the Help Of Hydro Angels Over America. Its like playing for the NY Yankees. I feel Like I can bring Hits to this team. Now instead of being ashamed of what I have, I can feel proud of How I overcame all the Obstacles that were involved. Hydro Angels Have won an award 2 years in a row. And Yes I feel they deserve it for a 3rd year as well. Maybe won day I can join them as well for all my accomplishments. Thanks Again Hydro Angels Over America. Success like my stories will always keep the Angels Flying High Above And Never Drowning!

This is an excellent organization! They help bring awareness to Hydrocephalus and support to those who are living with Hydrocephalus as well as theor families and friends.

As a parent of a child with hydrocephalus, a disease I had no knowledge of, I have found this organization to be very beneficial. They offer a lot of insight and much needed advice.

I am so glad they are here I didn't have them when my child was growing up there was no one for me to talk to and no one to cry with me or suport us in our jurney now no one has to go thru this journey alone

Hydro Angels over America has been there for my daughter Ashley, she got to go to hydro camp and then was selected for a Christmas miracle wish. Knowing about this program has helped us learn more and meet other families with hydrocephalus. My daughter is not alone and she isn't a quitter !

I have enjoyed getting to know Sheri Burdine and for the first time ever I met others who have Hydrocephalus like me. I have seen her personally struggle with her Hydrocephalus along with getting to know that I am not alone in my journey with this condition. My wife created the two tone blue hydroephalus ribbon to support me during the tough times and this organization has helped her dream come true my making it the national awareness ribbon. Its really touched many individuals in America/Canada along with people throughout the world on every continent. Its been a pleasure witnessing people coming together; and I thank everything Hydro Angels has done to spread the word :)

Hydro Angels Over America was a wonderful resource when we first found out our child had Hydrocephalus. We found out we aren't alone and feel blessed to have found them!

From day one Sheri Burdine and her amazing group of board members and volunteers and staff have made us feel part of the family. They are all loving and giving and their selflessness shows in their generosity and caring for others. We love Hydro Angels Over America!!!

This is a great organization that provides for hydrocephalus patients. I hope that they continue to receive funding for all future sufferers of this condition.

They are amazing! They are the only Non-profit in the US that actually will donate money on a regular basis to hydrocephalus patients directly to help cover medical costs when they can't afford them.

My name is Keith Burdine. I have had the pleasure of watching this organization grow from just a "thought" to a national organization in just a few short years. I am amazed at what has been accomplished with an all volunteer staff. Hydro Angels Over America is not a million dollar organization, but they certainly represent, support, love and advocate for the one million Americans living with hydrocephalus. I am honored to do my (small) part as a volunteer, who happens to be married to the founder and president of the organization. I have a birds-eye view of the passion and determination this organization has to make sure everyone who has hydrocephalus knows they are not alone.

Sheri has been helpful to so many people including myself. Thank You Sheri and Everyone.

Everything about the Hydro Angels Over America is amazing! I had the pleasure of meeting some of the most incredible and inspirational people while at the Hydrocephalus conference this year, which was run by HAOA. It was very well organised and was enjoyed by everyone of all ages. Definitely looking forward to the next one! The organisation is always trying to create awareness, but also always there to help families who have someone with the condition. They do incredible work and I feel very honoured to know them and call them family.

Hydro Angels have been like a family to us. My youngest daughter was born with several medical conditions one being Hydrocephalus. I found Hydro Angels after making her page. They were supportive from the start. They provide so much support and information. They also granted Janyia the Christmas angel and bought her a seat she needed, clothes and also $100 for Christmas. I love Hydro Angels, they are a great family to be apart of.

I have the pleasure of serving on the Board of this Wonderful Organization. Prior to joining the Board, I was a Volunteer and attended most of the events held by HydroAngels. At each event, I meet amazing people all dealing with Hydrocephalus in some way. Whether they personally have it or their loved one does, meeting them and seeing how they appreciate an organization founded in part to help them has truly enriched my life. I know people that are alive today as a direct result of the Founder of this organization's determination. That in itself, is monumental and powerful as it takes someone who is unselfish to give of themselves in the Hope of making a difference. Knowing someone with this kind of determination, is a joy and I am forever grateful to have been asked to serve as a Board Member.
I could list so many instances where HydroAngels has had a positive effect on the lives of others. I continue to be amazed by the people I meet at our events and wonder how different their lives would be without our efforts. You would have a hard time finding and organization that works as hard with every fiber of its being to make a difference and does. When a new program or service is created by HydroAngels, its generally due to a life changing event that we have been made aware of or involved in, and its our intention for that new program or service to provide comfort in one form or another.
We experience sad times when a HydroWarrior passes and it motivates us to keep working hard so that one day people will not perish as result of Hyrdocephalus. I will continue to work hard so we can do more. I am comforted to know that We Do Make a Difference.

Best regards,

Michael Wells

I met mrs.sheri and Angels over america right before my emergency shunt surgery in May. I spoke to mrs.sheri shortly after my surgery and was feeling depressed because of everything that was going on at the time. I asked her how much the hydro bears were. ..well, about a week and a half later I received a care package with a bear,2 books, a wrist band(which my husband wears every day) and a personal letter from her. It not only touched my heart but my soul as well. I didn't know that people like mrs.Sheri and organizations like hydro angel's over america existed. If it weren't for my husband pushing me to find out more about my hydrocephalusand encouraging me to to find others like me, I never would've found you guys. I am forever grateful in knowing that I'm not alone. Thank you so much

I am so proud to be a member of this amazing organization. My daughter was diagnosed with hydrocephalus at 3 months of age. I had no idea what to do and what to expect. Doctors told me the facts, but I had so many more questions and concerns for my baby. I reached out to Hydro Angels Over America and Sheri, the organizations founder and president, answered the phone. After talking me off my ledge of emotion, Sheri provided me with much needed information and answered so many of my questions and concerns. Sheri, herself, has hydrocephalus and knows first hand the struggles and concerns faced by families who are facing this diagnosis. I am so grateful to her and to the organization for providing a community that can help others with this condition. Not only is Hydro Angels Over America there to provide knowledge and support for families with Hydrocephalus, it also provides much needed funding for medical equipment, medical procedures, making many hydro warrior's dreams come true, funding for burial arrangements, funding for Hydro Camp (for children and adults with hydrocephalus) and so much more. This is truly and incredible organization with a Board that has so much heart. This world is a better place because of Hydro Angels Over America!

This is the best organization out there. My son was born with Hydrocephalus and we knew nothing about the condition. We spent 2 years with different organizations that did nothing but offer confusing information on their websites. These organizations made us feel like we were one in a million and were alone. We found Hydro Angels Over America in 2012 and our lives have been changed for the better ever since. The founder of the organization understands what all of these families dealing with hydro go through because she herself has hydrocephalus. This organization does so much for so many. Not only are do we feel like we are part of an organization but they make us feel like we are part of a big Hydro family. They have helped us is so many ways and we know that if there is ever anything we need then we can call them and they will not hesitate to get us (and everyone else) the help they need. This organization is a bless to everyone it reaches out to. HAOA does not hold anything against a person or family. It does not matter a persons background or what they do for a living. All that matters is bringing awareness to this condition and helping people that deal with it on a daily basis.

I have a 40 year old son with hydrocephalus and he has grown up as a unique person in our little town. Finding and joining this group has been wonderful! So thrilled by all the resources presented here on a daily basis!

The annual seminars are a wonderful opportunity to meet and greet other people with hydrocephalus and the information presented is cutting edge!

Cannot say enough good things about this organization and it's director!

This organization is awesome!! They gave me and my family an opportunity to learn more about my daughter condition when I didn't have the funding to go myself! I also now have a second family to turn to for support for my daughter!!

This organization has brought alot of support to my family. My son has hydrocephalus and I'm now a state volunteer. Sheri goes far and beyond what others have to raise awareness and funds for such a great cause. I applaud all she does!!

HAOA is the most amazing organization! They do so much for Hydro. warriors. My son has been able to go to Hydro Camp 2 years without it costing us a dime. Because of Hydro Angels we know we are not alone in this battle.

HAOA is the most caring organization I have ever seen! The founder Sheri Burdine lives with Hydrocephalus herself, so she understands the physical and emotional impact of what people go though. I have seen her encourage, motivate, love, cry, mourn, and make dreams come true that would otherwise never happen. I created an awareness ribbon for Hydrocephalus, and although I reached out to other organizations, HAOA is the only one who adopted it. It is now used worldwide and is spreading awareness where it was previously lacking. I love this organization and the people who run it!

I lost my daughter to Hydrocephalus and vowed I would make a difference in this community by raising awareness and money. I did a lot of research before deciding on an organization that I wanted to support. I chose HAOA after speaking with Sherri. Not only did I chose an amazing organization to support but they have also supported me in ways I didn't ever imagine. This organization truly makes unparalleled support to so many.

I have been working with Hydro Angels for the past 6 years and am very proud of our association with such a great cause. I met Sheri while I was working in New Braunfels, her home town. She explained to me why she created this organization. We started out slow with just some minor donations and have grown with her through the years to be one of her key sponsors. The fact that she has gone through so many surgeries and all she does is smile and say it is gods will is a testament to her faith and love for her fellow man. I am very proud to be associated with such a great cause and great person.

I have known Sheri Burdine since she organized the first Austin-San Antonio Hydrocephalus Walk and asked me to spread the word to my patients. After 3 years of helping to raise money for another national Hydrocephalus group, Sheri decided to start her own nonprofit in order to bring the support directly to the patients and families effected by hydrocephalus. I gladly accepted her request to be the medical advisor to the board. What began as Hydro Angels Over Texas has rapidly grown and spread across the country becoming Hydro Angels Over America and providing support for families all across the nation and as far away as Australia. Sheri has a fierce determination to raise awareness of the condition of hydrocephalus which affects young and old and to help patients and their family realize that they are not alone. Beyond the hours she spends in one-on-one phone calls and visits with families, through Hydro Angels she has organized walks and other fundraising events that provide financial assistance to needy families, created an overnight summer camp experience for hydro families, started the Hydro Heroes award to provide a special wish for an adult with hydrocephalus, inspired the creation of 2 college scholarships. Additionally, Hydro Angels established Project Daisy to help with burial cost assistance when the need arises. Sheri has been able to reach out to families near and far, Sheri has used social media to assist people across the nation with fundraising efforts with all of the money raised being kept for local needs. As part of the mission to raise awareness, Sheri has designed Hydro Bears, and written two educational books about the journey of Hydro Bear. All of this has been established in a remarkably short few years.

I learned about Hydrocephalus from our founder and when she asked me to help found Hydro Angels Over Texas I was honored. I have watched us grow from being a support group here in Texas to all across America and beyond. Sheri Burdine is passionate about helping others. We raise money not only for research but also to actually help others and make a difference in their lives. We truly care about the people we help and hope to see this disease get wiped out some day.

My dear friend's daughter was diagnosed as an infant, and I am so happy that she has this great organization to lean on during these difficult times. I am a proud donor and will always be a supporter of Hydro Angels.

Our granddaughter has hydrocephalus and without this organization I don't think we could have managed the web of information we sifted through. These volunteers gave us guidance and hope and something to look toward in a very dark time. They work endless hours to support this charity and we will always do all we can to support them in return for all the help they gave us. Our daughter, Ella's mom, has embraced the challenge with their help and we could not be more proud or thankful.

Hydro Angels has been helpful and supportive. My boyfriend's sister has hydro and before meeting her I had no idea what hydro was. Hydro Angels is very active about spreading awareness and that is very important. The events are fun and informative. The whole family appreciates HAOA and Sheri Burdine's support.

Hydro Angels is a supportive organization that has helped my hydrocephalic sister feel loved and accepted. The events are fun and informative. It is a great organization that I would recommend to anyone who lives with hydro whether they have it or know someone who does. The support the HydroAngels has given our family is amazing!

Hydro Angels is an awesome charity. My daughter has hydrocephalus. The events and activities Hydro Angels have help Ivy feel supported and like she's not the only one. Sheri and the hydro Angels are more than friends. They're family. I highly recommend this organization to anyone dealing with hydrocephalus.

I have a close friend who is active with Hydro Angels Over America ever since her daughter's diagnosis at 3 months old and I know that they have been a great resource for her and her family. Thanks to my friend and her family as well as Hydro Angels Over America I now have an awareness of hydrocephalus when just a few years ago I had absolutely no knowledge about it. I will be sure to make the next fundraising event!

I have a dear friend who is very active with this organization ever since her daughter's diagnosis and I know that it has been a great resource for her and her family. Unfortunately, I was unable to attend the bowling event that was recently held but I heard that it was a tremendous success! Thanks to my very active friend and this organization I now have an awareness of hydrocephalus when not too long ago I had absolutely no knowledge about it. I will be sure to make the next fundraising event!

My daughter, Annagail, was born with hydrocephallus. She has been in therapy and seen specialists since her birth. Today she is a thriving 5yr. old in Kindergarten. She has had her medical scares, hospitalizations and set-backs in her short life. She developed seizures a year ago which regressed her and tripled her therapy visits per week. We are a hard working middle class family and give every opportunity to our daughter to excel. In the past 2 years my husband underwent radiosurgery for a tumor on his brain. We were also blessed with a little boy last year. That being said, my husband had to take off work for a year then downsize his workload. And I was just laid off last month. Our annual visits on our insurance had run out for Annagail's therapy and we were paying out of pocket for 3 visits to OT/PT and speech weekly. I knew we could not afford her therapy anymore so desperately I searched the internet for help. We are firm believers in charity and have always given to our community. So I thought surely someone could help us. I found Hydro Angels over America and was elated. Not only did the organization ease my stress and worry........Ms. Sherri gave me comfort and guidance. This is a top notch organization. You can feel the sincerity and that they are truly their to help you and your family. Hydros help with our daughter's therapy has given me a sense of hope that my daughter will continue to defy the odds with her development and education. I couldn't be more proud to be a recipient from such a beautiful person and organization. And I am forever grateful for them. Heather Rusher

Mike and Georgia, members of our Evening Lions Club, have been active supporters or HAOA. They brought an HAOA presentation to one of our club meetings which led to our club making a donation in support of their efforts. Since then, we have supported some of their fundraising events and made additional donations as one of our annually budgeted charities. As Lions, our motto is "We Serve". We are happy to "serve" this under publicized effort to improve the treatment and lives of those afflicted with this condition.

I am thrilled to be a part of Hydro Angels Over America (HAOA). This organization reaches people across the country, and even globally, to provide support and education for families coping with Hydrcephalus. HAOA is also committed to awareness and research of Hydrocephalus with hope of finding a cure to this devastating condition. Sheri Burdine, the founder for HAOA, has such a wonderful heart for this cause and truly this organization makes a difference in so many lives. Awesome non-profit!

I became aware of this organization when one of my former students sent me an email. At that time, she was asking for pledges and thankfully, I was able to help. I am aware of the tremendous support this organization offers to families. Prior to her email, I was not aware of this organization. I continue to applaud everyone that makes contributions for the welfare of everyone affected by Hydrocephalus.

Being a member of the board of this organization is something that I am SO PROUD OF. How many people can say that they belong to something that changes peoples lives everyday? We do things that no one else does. We have programs for helping with co-pays for surgery, medical equipment, medicine, eye care, hearing care. We have continuing education scholarships. Hydrocamp which puts children together with other children with hydrocephalus so they know they are not alone. We have Project Daisy to help those who lose a loved one. We have Hyrdo-Hero, which gives continuing education credits for the medical field. Who else offers that? No one that's who!!!!! This organization is the best organization in the world!!!!! Our founder is the BEST in the WORLD and she does more for her HYDRO ANGELS than anyone. If you are not a part of this incredible organization yet then you should be, don't wait get involved and change your live and the lives of others today, it is so worth it.

Hydro Angels granted my son his Christmas wish in 2012 - a therapy trampoline. Their generosity has helped my son tremendously! His physical therapists are so grateful as well that we can do so much more therapy at home. Hydro Angels has also been wonderful when it comes to information & support. We feel incredibly blessed to have an organization like Hydro Angels to turn to!
