Give Monthly
Become a Champion for Adults with Disabilities
Monthly giving is a simple, convenient way to make a lasting impact on the lives of the adults with disabilities we serve. Your ongoing support helps individuals access opportunities, build relationships, and live meaningful, connected lives.
On average, it costs $80 to provide one day of services for one client, while government reimbursements cover just $75. That leaves a $5 gap for every day of service provided.
A monthly gift of just $5 helps cover that gap for one client, ensuring they can continue receiving the life-changing support they rely on. By making an ongoing commitment to the individuals we serve, you become a true champion of inclusion, opportunity, and independence. That’s why we call our monthly giving program the Champions Club.
