Friends, we need your help!

At The Kistler Center we know accidents happen and sometimes that can require a change of clothes for the kiddos we serve. Our “uh-oh” closet supply is getting very low and that’s where you come in!

We need…
✨ Baby Clothes (newborn - 18 mo)
✨ Toddler/Kid Clothes (2T - YL)
✨ Diapers and Pull Ups (all sizes)
✨ Baby Wipes

All clothing must be new or gently used with no rips, tears, or stains.

Donations can be dropped off at the Center or mailed to 3304 S. M St. Fort Smith, AR 72903.

Last week, Tesla came in and told her therapist, Ms. Crystal, that she wanted to ride the bike during her therapy session that day. Ms. Crystal got her buckled in and off she went! We are so proud of Tesla and all of the progress she is making toward her goals. ❤

Gina and Hayley attended the Future Legends Community Day at the Stephens Unit of Fort Smith Boys & Girls Clubs.

Different By Design hosted a sensory exploration zone for attendees to experience and even allowed them to make stress balls to use as a regulation activity at home!

Thank you to both organizations for inviting us and allowing us the opportunity to meet members of the community!
