The Different Needz Foundation

The Different Needz Foundation is a 501(C)(3) charitable organization. The Foundation’s primary mission, inspired by personal experience, is to provide special needs individuals, families and organizations that support them with money to purchase medical equipment, therapy devices, adaptive toys and/or services.

The Different Needz Foundation is the sister company to DifferentNeedz.com. DifferentNeedz.com is the first and only dedicated website that allows the special needs community to buy and sell gently used and new medical equipment, therapy devices, adaptive toys and more online.  DifferentNeedz.com provides an avenue for special needs individuals, families, institutions and foundations to acquire quality necessities for daily life at significantly reduced prices. A percentage of every sale is donated to the Different Needz Foundation.

Both Differentneedz.com and the Different Needz Foundation were inspired by the life of Luke Jordan. Luke was born with many physical disabilities and medical conditions. Despite his disabilities, Luke was able to bring out the best in those who knew him. The Different Needz Foundation helps Luke’s “friends” obtain the necessary equipment and medical services they need to have the best quality of life.

The Foundation is currently raising money through fundraisers and private donations. Grants can be obtained through an application process. The grant process is scheduled to begin in 2010.
