Support Meg Foundation

When a child’s pain is managed poorly, it’s not “just a rough moment.” It can shape how they see and manage their care for the rest of their lives. Early pain experiences can rewire the brain and body—fueling fear, anxiety, and even avoidance of care well into adulthood.

That’s bad for kids, bad for families, and bad for the healthcare system we all depend on.

The good news? You can help change that story. The science is clear: with the right tools and know‑how, we can prevent unnecessary suffering, protect kids’ trust in healthcare, and set them up for healthier futures.

Your gift closes the gap between what we know works and what actually happens in exam rooms, ERs, and hospital beds—so families have the resources they need, when they need them.

You’ll help kids feel safe, families feel empowered, and providers feel supported. Because pain management isn’t just comfort in the moment—it’s lifelong health.
