Where Your $25 Goes

It’s Not Just $25

If you’ve ever skipped a donation because you thought, “It’s just $25—what difference could it really make?”

This post is for you.

Because at Adorable Babies Jump Start, we’ve seen that the smallest gifts often spark the biggest transformations.

And if you’re a parent reading this?

This post will show you how $25 isn’t just a number.

It’s hope delivered in a box — with tools, support, and answers you didn’t know how to ask for.

What $25 Really Buys

At ABJS, a single $25 donation funds a complete milestone kit for one child and their caregiver.

But it’s not just paper or charts—it’s a life-changing resource bundle, created with insight from child development specialists and real families.

Here’s what’s inside:

Early Childhood Developmental Milestones

The Milestone Tracker

A simple, easy-to-follow tool that helps caregivers monitor their child’s development across key areas:

^

Social-emotional growth

^

Communication & language

^

Sensory exploration

^

Physical & motor skills

And yes — it includes red flags that most online charts leave out. Subtle signs like:

^

A toddler who doesn’t respond to their name

^

A child who avoids eye contact or play

^

A baby who never cries, coos, or babbles

“I thought he was just quiet. ABJS helped me realize he needed support—and we caught it early.” — Maria, Parent

Play-Based Learning Activities

Each $25 kit includes age-appropriate activity suggestions that aren’t just fun—they’re diagnostic in disguise.

A toddler who won’t imitate a peekaboo game?
A preschooler who never plays “pretend”?
A baby who doesn’t reach for toys?

These tiny clues can tell us everything we need to know about how the brain is developing. And our activities are designed to reveal those patterns—gently, through play.

Caregiver Support Materials

Each kit also includes:

^

Tips for reducing overwhelm

^

How to approach pediatricians with concerns

^

Emotional support checklists

^

Access to a live support line (included with every kit we send)

Because the truth is:

When a parent feels seen, a child feels safe.

Why This Matters More Than Ever

Early red flags are often missed because parents:

^

Don’t know what to look for

^

Are afraid of sounding alarmist

^

Don’t want their child “labelled”

^

Don’t have access to affordable screenings

Your $25 changes that.

It gets into the hands of someone who’s been wondering, in silence:

“Is this normal?”
“Why isn’t anyone helping me?”
“Am I overthinking this?”

And suddenly, with one small box, they realize they’re not alone—and they’re not failing.

 

What Happens After the Kit

Each kit also includes:

^

The caregiver is invited to join a live milestone circle

^

They can book a virtual consult if they need help reading the signs

^

They’re connected to volunteer mentors and parent support groups

^

If further support is needed, they’re guided toward our screening and sponsorship programs

All of this begins with one small, quiet moment:

A $25 gift landing in a caregiver’s hands at just the right time.

What Parents Say After Receiving a Kit

“I cried when I opened it. Not because I was scared, but because someone finally understood what I was going through.”

Eliza,

ABJS Parent

“That little packet showed me more than two years of appointments ever did.”

Devon,

Single Dad

“We caught our daughter’s speech delay six months earlier than we would’ve without this.”

Tamika,

ABJS Sponsor-Parent

Here to help children and parents

A Small Gift. A Huge Shift.

$25 might be the cost of takeout, a birthday gift, or a new shirt.

But when you give it here?
It becomes the moment a parent breathes easier for the first time in weeks.
It becomes the first clue that helps a child catch up—before school, before the system, before the struggle.
