Past Recipient Families

Spare Key Family

“I was in a car accident a year ago and was in the hospital for two months. Because of your generosity, my parents were with me the whole time.”
   – Katie Glad - 15 year old in car accident

 

“You gave us hope that things would be okay, during a time when we thought things would never be okay again.”
    –Kim Lovrich - Mother of child with trisomy 13


“Without Spare Key, I don’t think I would be writing you this note from my kitchen table in the house in which we still live.”
    –James Jamar - Father of deceased twins


“We became overwhelmed with bills, letters from the insurance company and all the red tape that goes with having someone so seriously ill. Spare Key allowed us financially to be there for our son, and gave us the time to work out our finances to be able to continue to do so.”
    –Trish Adams - Mother of 3 year old with Leukemia


“What a huge benefit you give families. Without your help in July, I honestly don’t know what we would have done.”
    –Kris Linquist - Mother of child with hypoplastic left heart syndrome


“Your prayers, kind acts, kind words, cards, and gift of a mortgage, give us strength that we pass on to Max to continue the fight, and fight he has.”
    –Paul Adams - Father of three-year old with leukemia


“The Spare Key application process was respectful and not nearly as grueling and degrading as others. Due to the dual-income we had before I took the unpaid leave through Family Medical Leave Act, we didn’t qualify for any other assistance. It is also refreshing to deal with people who have been where I am and know what life is like in our situation.”
    –Carol Klein - Mother of infant with cancer
