The Institutes for the Achievement of Human Potential Launches $1.2M Fundraising Campaign to Expand and Reach More Families Who Need Help

Not-for-profit that has served families of children with developmental challenges for more than 70 years asks the public to donate, share and help families with children who need help.

PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 11, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- The Institutes for the Achievement of Human Potential (IAHP) has launched a GoFundMe campaign to raise $1.2 million to reach parents who desperately need help but can't find its life-changing resources.

For more than half a century, The Institutes has given parents the knowledge, guidance and program they need to help their children develop at home. As a small not-for-profit, it depends on generous donors who believe every child deserves a fighting chance to be better. Today, these neurologically challenged children are at risk.

"Right now, too many parents are searching for answers and not finding the help they need. This campaign is about making sure parents can find us the instant they know their child has a problem," says Janet Doman, the director. "Please help us to reach as many parents as we can, so parents can receive the good news that the answers they need are right around the corner. Our parents can replace false despair with real hope and get their children on a pathway to wellness."

What the campaign supports

Donations will help The Institutes enhance outreach to parents around the world and then provide the knowledge, guidance and ongoing support parents need to help their child. The campaign aims to raise $1.2 million by May 30, 2027
