The Grow Clinic for Children

Support Our Clinic

Our clinic's success depends on outreach services not reimbursed by insurance companies or government programs. Therefore, the survival of the clinic depends on private donations to fund essential outreach services to our clients in addition to medical care. 

Donate 

When donating to BMC, you can specify that your gift goes to the Grow Clinic. To designate your donation to the Grow Clinic, select “Other” next to “Designate to,” click “Add comment,” and type in Grow Clinic. 

Growth & Development Programs: Supply Drive 

Many of the Grow Clinic children and their families are struggling with the cost of heat, food, and shelter. Finding additional funds to provide children with basic necessities is difficult, but with your help, we can support our patients and their families and help them to be warm and healthy. Your gift ensures that our yearly drive reaches not only our patients, but also their siblings, strengthening the whole family. 

Please review our supply donation listing to help you plan your donation. 

Please call 617.414.5251 to schedule your donation drop-off. 

Grow Clinic Holiday Party and Toy Drive 

Our holiday party takes place in December. In preparation for the party and to ensure that every family we serve has a joyous holiday season, please consider donating to our annual toy drive starting in October to support the children and siblings of the Grow Clinic. 

Baby Steps NICU Follow Up Clinic at Boston Medical Center 

The Baby Steps Clinic provides developmental evaluations and nutritional assessments of infants born prematurely or term infants that had a complicated newborn period. Like The Grow Clinic, Baby Steps is a multidisciplinary clinic staffed by a developmental/behavioral pediatrician, occupational therapists, dietitians, and family outreach advocates. 

Families in the Baby Steps Clinic often face struggles like those faced by Grow Clinic families, including the cost of providing heating, food, and stable housing for their medically fragile child and their siblings. With your donations and support, we can provide Baby Steps families with supplies that are essential to newborn development and nutrition and help families begin a healthy life for their babies. 

Please also consider supporting the Baby Steps Clinic. In-kind donations, detailed in the link below, can be dropped-off following the same directions for Grow Clinic donations.
