Welcome back to the Inclusive Education Project Podcast! We hope you’ve enjoyed the summer break and we have some great podcasts lined up for you this fall, including plenty about the new school year. Joining us today, however, is Taylor Smith, the Executive Director of the Maryam Parman Foundation for Injured Children. We are incredibly honored to have her on the show and think that you will be as touched by the unique work that the Foundation does, as we are. Don’t miss this inspiring conversation!

Show Highlights:

  • Taylor provides an overview of her educational and work background and how this played a part in being invited to start a non-profit with successful personal injury attorney, Maryam Parman.
  • The Foundation steps in to assist low-income, severely injured children.
  • The Maryam Parman Foundation for Injured Children has served 26 children and families since its inception in 2017. 
  • Taking care of an injured child takes a physical and mental toll on families, especially if they cannot afford the medical devices, services, programs, and resources needed to care for their child. 
  • The Foundation offers assistance with medical devices, services, programs, and resources that are not covered by insurance.
  • Taylor sings the praises of the Founder, the Executive Team, and the Board of the Maryam Parman Foundation for Injured Children.
  • The Foundation is a 501(c)(3) public charity, which means more than one-third of their donations come from the general public. They focus on fundraising and raising awareness for the foundation.
  • If you’re ready to help change lives, including your own, please visit the Maryam Parman Foundation for Injured Children for volunteer opportunities and different ways to donate.
  • Taylor shares some heartwarming stories of families that they help.
