time, money and in-kind contribution help keep us going

with the day-to-day operations of our organization? Do you want to become
more involved? We are always looking for people to help. Whether it is joining
a committee, helping to plan a fundraiser, doing some office work, our
volunteers provide an important service.
 Help fulfill our wish List: Money isn't everything. In-kind donations are just
as important. Maybe your business provides a service we need. Or perhaps you
have an item that is just taking up space. You may even have Silent Auction
items that we can use to raise money to support our programs.
 Hire a person with a Disability: If you are an employer looking for quality
employees, consider hiring a person with a disability. Studies have shown that
people with disabilities make excellent, hard-working employees. It’s good for
business. It’s good for the community.
 Consider a Monetary Contribution: We depend upon your contribution to
help us make a difference in someone's life. The growing need for more services
to provide the support they will need, makes it critical for us to receive
charitable financial Contribution. from people like you.
