Volunteer
It's really important for me to bring my kids (to volunteer) and show them how to appreciate and value other people and kids with special needs. So many people are so busy doing things for themselves and their own families... It's really nice and fulfilling to do something for someone else. It's a great feeling to come here (to ChildServe) and spend time with the kids.
Mission: We partner with families to help children with special health care needs live a great life. Vision: ChildServe will be the premier provider of connected care and specialty pediatric services in Iowa.

Organizational Values

  • Care
    The value of care and caring is embedded in ChildServe’s organizational culture. Our reason for being is to provide the care that enables children to live a great life. The staff is made up of caring individuals desiring to make a difference in the lives of children and their families. The supporting community cares about the mission and partners with ChildServe through volunteerism and acts of charity and financial support.
  • Integrity
    The value of integrity guides each staff person as well as the organization. Each staff person promotes integrity by ensuring all relationships and activities are honest, respectful, and ethical. Integrity requires that we are effective stewards of the organizational resources; demonstrate compliance with all regulatory standards and organizational requirements; and ensure that our organizational actions are aligned with the mission.
  • Trust
    Trust is a key ingredient in all of the relationships within the organization. Trust is the key to establishing partnerships with families, in providing care to each child, in the commitments we make to each other as staff and board members, and in the commitments that ChildServe makes to families, staff and the supporting community. Trust enables ChildServe to successfully implement the mission and achieve the agreed upon outcomes and results.
  • Partnerships
    Partnerships are essential to the work of ChildServe. No one can achieve the mission of ChildServe alone. Partnerships with the family enable us to help each child to live a great life. Partnerships with staff ensure that we provide great care while exercising effective stewardship of resources. Partnerships with the community ensure that we are responsive to community needs and accountable to regulators, payers and supporters. We strive to build partnerships based upon collaboration, mutuality, trust, integrity and caring.
