The Arc’s 2009 Annual Appeal kicked off
in March to coincide with National Intellectual Disabilities
Awareness Month. With a goal of $90,000 the appeal is The
Arc’s main fundraising tool. Monies raised help The Arc keep
its doors open to consumers who want to learn new skills,
pursue their interests, develop social skills and friendships,
and live successful lives.
This year’s Annual Appeal campaign
focuses on Diane, an inspiring woman who spent her younger
years living in a state institution for people with
disabilities and most of her adult life living with her
family. This year Diane realized a lifelong goal and moved
into her own apartment. Diane worked hard to gain success in
her life, and cooking, reading, and computer classes at The
Arc helped her achieve her goals. Your support is what makes
success for people like Diane a reality. If you would like to
invest in The Arc and help consumers like Diane achieve
success, please read this information
