In honor of Kathy Zingler

Mental health support for the people caring for someone they love.

When someone in your family has a life-threatening illness, you hold everyone else up. Too often, the wait to see a counselor is months. Fluttering Wings is building a faster way: a licensed counselor within 7 days, at low to no cost to you.

Why we exist

"When my dad was caring for my mom, the wait to see a counselor was months. Then one counselor said, 'I'll see him tomorrow.' We want every caregiver to get that call." Chad Zingler, Founder

Our story

What we're building

A network of licensed counselors in Western New York and Rochester who agree to see a family caregiver within 7 days. First, we'll connect caregivers with them. As gifts come in, we'll help pay for their sessions.

What we do

How you can help

Give, introduce us to a counselor, nurse or social worker, or share our story with someone caring for a loved one.
