We understand what you’re going through.

“The stressors of housing and the financial burden it can place on a family are especially hard when a family has a child in the hospital. We know how extremely difficult it is to find long term housing options that are affordable. It is our hope that through the Paul Magnus Foundation we are able to honor our son Paul’s memory and help families in similar situations by hopefully relieving some of their housing financial burdens.”
