Story

Join with us in Supporting our Response to COVID-19 with your gift today!

Many of you have asked what can we do to help and how we can make a difference? Heres how you can support us during this time:

In speaking with our residential staff members, what means the most are meals that they do not have to prepare - as it allows for more direct supports and personal interactions as well as care-packages. These packages can include warm messages of support, activities, and items for the staff. By making a donation to this fund, you will be making it possible for our working staff members and people we support to enjoy unexpected acts of kindness and support.
