Our most important funder in Our Work? YOU.

At Idaho Parents Unlimited (IPUL), we’re committed to empowering families of children and youth with disabilities and complex health needs across the state. But to keep doing this work — and to expand our impact — we need your support.

Our programs have always operated with limited funding. Individual donations like yours help us bridge the gap and reach more families who count on us.

An example of a program with the greatest need is our Work of Art program. With Work of Art, which connects students with disabilities to local artists and businesses for paid, hands-on work experience. These opportunities help young people build the skills and confidence they need to succeed in the workplace and beyond.

When you give to IPUL, you’re investing in real futures. You’re helping young people discover their potential — and helping families across Idaho thrive.

Every contribution matters.
Thank you for being part of this work.
