Box 287 Charlestown, NH 03603. David's House provides a home-away-from-home and support for families with children receiving treatment through Children's Hospital at Dartmouth-Hitchcock Medical Center in Lebanon, N.H. Since opening its doors in 1986, David's House has served over 11,000 families from around the world. David's House was the dream of a young boy, David Cyr, who passed away at the age of five after almost three years of battling acute lymphocytic leukemia. Throughout his time in the hospital, David made friends with the other children receiving treatment for illness and injuries, and always begged his parents to take his new friends home with them to his house, his haven from the pain and uncertainty of his condition. David's parents met other parents and caregivers who slept in waiting rooms, cars, anywhere just to be next to their child, and when David passed away in 1984 the dream of taking all of these families home began to become a reality. Donald Osgood, a big advocate for David’s House, passed away last January, and it is the desire of the Friends to carry on Donald’s memory of helping David’s House. Thanking you in advance for your help.
