Being the grandparent of a special needs child, I feared his future would hold loneliness and rejection. Finding Friendship Circle has instead brought us promise and optimism by offering wonderful programs that provide individuals a chance to learn and socialize in an environment that is accepting and that celebrates everyone’s unique and loving spirits. Evan’s has aged out of educational options now and it’s nice to know there is a place for those young adults. Friendship Circle continues their promise that this organization truly cares by offering training in digital, traditional, and culinary arts. For the 17th year, I ask your support as I try to reach my fundraising goal of $1,800. Please know your donation is 100% tax deductible and every donation, regardless of size, makes a difference. Thanks, Dorene.
