Bring Joy and Relief to Families and Children in Chicago!
For children with life-changing health conditions or injuries, we make family living spaces more accessible, functional and joyful.
Founded in Southeastern NC in 2007, the vision for Welcome Home Angel (WHA) was cast by founder, John Kaiser, when two neighborhood children were diagnosed with life-altering conditions. While watching Extreme Makeover: Home Edition, John wondered - why can't our community provide specialized makeovers for local families and their children facing serious illness or injury?
John recruited Chicago native, Meg Caswell, to help grow the organization, while casting a vision for national expansion. After transforming the spaces and lives of over 70 families in NC, WHA took their know-how to the Windy City, and Meg launched the first national expansion chapter in 2023.
