Put something in a new parent's hands.
Yami was handed statistics on the day of her son's Down syndrome diagnosis. We hand families a gift box, a room full of parents who've been there, and a world with space for their child. Your gift is what makes the handoff possible.
Choosing Noah is founder-led, with no paid staff. There's almost nothing between your gift and the family it reaches.
Three pillars. One family at a time.
- Choosing Hope — Diagnosis Day Gift Boxes and parent resources delivered at the moment the news lands.
- Choosing Community — monthly support groups and family gatherings in Brooklyn, expanding as the village grows.
- Choosing Inclusion — partnered events that open a business's space to children of all abilities, free to families.
We're founder-led with no paid staff, which means overhead is close to zero and your gift goes to the work — gift boxes, rooms, and events — not salaries. Brooklyn is home; the families we serve are across the country.

Give once through the form below, or join The Village and give monthly — a predictable gift lets us promise strength to the next family before we know who they are.

Before you give
Is my gift tax-deductible?
Not yet. Choosing Noah, Inc. is a New York not-for-profit corporation and our 501(c)(3) determination is pending with the IRS. We'll update this page the day it arrives. Every gift still goes directly to the work.
Can I cancel a monthly gift?
Any time, in two clicks, from the receipt email Zeffy sends you — or email us and we'll do it for you.
Why Zeffy?
Zeffy is a giving platform that charges nonprofits nothing — no platform fee, no processing fee. It's funded by optional tips from donors. That means 100% of what you give reaches Choosing Noah.
