Welcome to Sparrow Clubs USA To all those who have contacted Sparrow Clubs USA since the airing of ABC's Extreme Makeover, Home Edition with the McPhail Family in Medford, Oregon: Thank you for your interest in Sparrow Clubs USA. We appreciate your taking time to contact us regarding your your desire to help out where there is a need in your own community. We have had an unprecedented number of responses to this broadcast in the past few days. Clearly, the McPhail family touched many hearts with the story of their courage and resilience. In order to respond to the high volume of inquiries we have received, we are relying on our website until we can contact individuals regarding specific requests. Our plan is to post links to resources for parents concerning medical conditions , including autism, and existing support organizations across the country. We are also in the process of constructing templates for use in getting students involved in community service, obtaining local sponsorships, and managing the volunteer systems that make Sparrow Clubs successful in schools and youth groups such as 4-H and Scouts. We plan to have these materials available as soon as we can. At the present time, our ability to provide direct services outside the states of Washington and Oregon is very limited. However, we plan to develop a way to network people from similar geographical areas who are interested in extending Sparrow Clubs to other parts of the country. Thank you for your patience as we continue to reach out as far as we are able to help children in medical need. If you are a parent with an ill child, please download the Sparrow application from our website, complete it, and return to our national office in Bend, Oregon. We consider families on a case by case basis. We encourage you to read the application carefully in order to understand more about Sparrow Clubs and what they can and cannot do as a 501(c)3 charity.
