The "Gaby Davis Foundation" was started in memory our daughter and friend Gabrielle Davis who lost her battle with childhood cancer in March 2007. Her brave fight against cancer inspired us to fulfill her wish to help other families fighting this terrible beast. Gaby experienced a life changing event with her diagnosis but instead of feeling sorry for herself it made her more sensitive to others' needs. During a visit to the hospital pharmacy Gaby witnessed a parent break down because they didn't have enough money to buy the drugs they needed to bring their child home. Gaby was quite shaken by the experience and shortly thereafter said this to her Dad... "Dad, we sure are lucky to have so many friends helping us. You think when my cancer is over, we can help people who don't have as many friends? I wish all the kids with cancer had enough money to do the stuff we get to do." Please help us to make this wish come true.

Founded in 1973, Our mission at the Central Florida Children's Home is to care for children whose parents either cannot or will not provide for them due to certain circumstances in the child’s life, and/or difficulties in the parents’ lives. We create a real ‘home’ atmosphere by assigning children a “mom and dad”. This creates a secure environment where the children can experience unconditional love and nurturing. An emphasis is placed on academic achievement to insure that the children are well prepared for higher academic studies or vocational training for the job market. Our children are assigned chores and responsibilities to help develop character and discipline, skills that they can carry with them throughout their lives. Non-profit 501 (C) 3 charity. We accept NO state or governament funding. We rely solely on the community for funds.
