Together We Grow: Building a Stronger Community with the Armer Foundation for Kids

At the Armer Foundation for Kids, we believe in the power of community to create lasting change. Our “Together We Grow” campaign embodies this belief, uniting individuals, families, and businesses in Phoenix to support children with serious medical conditions, like Emeri, who are bravely fighting for their lives. Since our founding in 2019 by Jennifer and Matt Armer, we’ve been dedicated to easing the burdens of families facing unimaginable challenges. With your help, we can grow our impact, ensuring no child or family walks this journey alone.

The Heart of Together We Grow

“Together We Grow” is more than a campaign—it’s a movement rooted in unity, compassion, and action. It’s about coming together as a community to provide hope and support for kids battling chronic or life-threatening illnesses. Right now, children like Emeri are in the fight of their lives, facing hospital stays, treatments, and uncertainty. Emeri, a shining light in our Armer family, is currently fighting with incredible courage, and her family is by her side, navigating the emotional and financial toll of her condition. Through “Together We Grow,” we’re rallying our community to stand with families like Emeri’s, offering them the resources and love they need during their hardest moments.

How the Armer Foundation Makes a Difference

The Armer Foundation for Kids is committed to reducing financial barriers for families with children facing extreme medical conditions. Here’s how we help:

Financial Support: We cover medical co-pays, deductibles, and out-of-pocket expenses that can quickly overwhelm families. For Emeri’s family, this means they can focus on her care without the added stress of mounting bills.
Comfort Items: We provide small but meaningful gifts—like soft blankets, toys, and books—to bring joy to children during hospital stays. For Emeri, a favorite stuffed animal has become a source of comfort during tough days.
Community Care: Beyond financial aid, we create a network of support, connecting families with others who understand their journey and offering a shoulder to lean on.

Every dollar donated through the “Together We Grow” campaign goes directly to these efforts, ensuring that kids like Emeri and their families receive the help they need most.

Why Together We Grow Matters Now

The need for support has never been greater. Families like Emeri’s are facing not only the emotional weight of a child’s critical illness but also the financial strain of medical costs that can spiral out of control. A single hospital stay can cost thousands, and many families are forced to choose between paying for treatment and covering basic necessities like rent or groceries. The Armer Foundation steps in to bridge that gap, but we can’t do it alone. “Together We Grow” is our call to action—a chance for the Phoenix community to come together and show these families they’re not alone in their fight.

This campaign also fosters a sense of belonging and shared purpose. When we grow together, we build a stronger, more compassionate community—one where every child has the chance to heal, dream, and thrive, no matter the obstacles they face.

The Impact of Growing Together

When we unite as a community, the impact is profound. Last year, the Armer Foundation helped over 50 families in the Phoenix area, covering thousands of dollars in medical expenses and providing countless comfort items to children in hospitals. With “Together We Grow,” we aim to double that impact in 2025, reaching more families and offering even greater support. Every donation, every shared post, and every volunteer hour helps us grow our reach, ensuring that kids like Emeri have the resources they need to keep fighting.

But the impact goes beyond numbers. When you join “Together We Grow,” you’re giving families hope. You’re telling Emeri’s parents that they don’t have to face this battle alone. You’re showing a child in the hospital that their community believes in them. That kind of support can be a lifeline during the darkest times.

A Message for Emeri and Her Family

To Emeri and her family: You are in our hearts every day. Your strength inspires us, and we’re committed to standing by your side as Emeri fights for her life. Through “Together We Grow,” we’re rallying the Phoenix community to support you with the resources, love, and encouragement you need. You are not alone—we’re growing together, for you.
