Story

We are truly grateful to everyone who helped us exceed our goal by Fundraising, Donating, Sharing, and particularly for our Generous Anonymous Matching Gift of $20,000. Special Thanks to Michael Prevosk from CYP for helping with the videos.

We would like to thank the following donors who gave offline: The Conner Family $500, Joyce Ferrara $500, Byrnes Family $500, Brinati- Means Family $500, Henkleman Construction $250, Yasmin Sanchez Delbrey $250, Robert Zielke $200, Lewis and Massey P.A. $100, and Richardville Family $100.

Bishop Grady Villas provides residential, employment, transition, and life skills development programs to individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities in Central Florida. Before COVID-19, our focus was assisting the individuals we serve to share their God-given gifts with the greater community. Today, we are faced with an enormous challenge keeping the vulnerable individuals we serve and the staff who support them safe and still providing them with a healthy and happy environment that nourishes those gifts so they can continue to be light and hope for those who know them.

We are so grateful to the HEROES who show up each day to support and care for our residents in our Assisted Living Community in St. Cloud, and our team members who provide Life Skills Development activities in person and now through videoconferencing. Our heroes keep those we serve growing, entertained, and happy while they deal with the frustrations of the emergency order prohibiting visitation from outside family and friends.

We are relying on the generosity of those willing to partner with us, to continue to face these challenges, and provide much needed protective equipment, supplies, and direct support to the people that we are blessed to serve. Thank you for partnering with us, and multiplying your gifts, with the gifts of each individual that's part of the broad community at Bishop Grady Villas. We hope these 5 Days of Hope and Happiness inspire you to participate in our important mission in whatever way you are able. Thank you for your ongoing prayers and financial support.
