The mission of Samantha's Purpose is to raise awareness about Cerebral Palsy, provide funding through grants for programs, schools, and camps that are fully inclusive and support and improve the quality of life of children with Cerebral Palsy, provide guidance and support to families of children with Cerebral Palsy by helping them navigate the maze of insurance, government programs, education and doctors and advocate for inclusion of those with Cerebral Palsy throughout the community.  

Samantha’s Purpose was co-founded by Jose “Manny” Garcia and Michelle Coffey-Garcia, the parents of Samantha Garcia. This charity is their way of fulfilling a promise to their daughter, who lives with Cerebral Palsy.

“We believe that everyone is created with a purpose, no matter your limitations. Samantha’s diagnosis has a PURPOSE.” – Michelle Coffey-Garcia
