Highest Priority Needs
Your gift to our highest priority needs gives us flexibility to act fast when urgent challenges arise. This fund supports accessible housing, transportation, and assistive devices, ensuring independence, dignity, and meaningful connections for those we serve.
-
Accessible Housing
Your gift helps create barrier-free homes designed for people with sensory loss and physical challenges. Rising construction and housing costs make building or renovating fully accessible homes increasingly challenging, but your support makes it possible, turning a house into a home for those we serve.

Accessible Transportation
Reliable transportation opens doors to health care, recreational programs and everyday life. Your support for wheelchair-accessible vans ensures the people we serve have every opportunity to explore and enjoy their communities.
