Raffle Benefits

Little Angels is a loving home for children and young adults with severe disabilities and complex medical needs. It is a state-of-the-art facility offering round-the-clock skilled nursing, therapeutic and habilitation services in a warm, caring environment. Founded in 1958 by Elgin residents Pat and Bob Wasmond, Little Angels may not be a home in the traditional sense, but it does provide the most important aspects that make a home–love, care and support.

Little Angels also operates the Cathy Freeman Center for Developmental Training, a dynamic therapeutic day program for young adults with severe disabilities. Little Angels and the adjacent DT center are located on Rt. 58, on the eastern edge of Elgin, IL.

In 1958, Pat Wasmond, a registered nurse and mother of eleven, worked in a local doctor’s office. This doctor had a child who was severely handicapped, requiring 24 hour care. His family had difficulty managing this challenging situation. Pat offered her assistance and the child came to live with Pat, Bob and their children. Word spread in the Elgin area of this exceptional family and the wonderful care this child was receiving. Soon calls poured into the Wasmond home from other families seeking help. It became evident to Pat there was a vital call for this type of care in the Elgin area. She and her husband bought the house next to their own and created a home for children with profound disabilities. Little Angels was founded. It all began with one family taking a child into their home. (Read more on their website – link below)
