Story
As Chair of the Our House Foundation, I’m honored to serve such a wonderful organization that is making true strides in fulfilling its purpose of supporting meaningful lives for adults with
intellectual/developmental disabilities in residential, employment, day and recreation services. The Foundation Board of Trustees is committed to raising money for programming, clinical staffing, maintenance on homes and many other areas of need.
This past year, managing our lives during the COVID-19 pandemic has been challenging for all of us, but especially for those individuals served by Our House. During this time, I have been so impressed by the hard work and dedication of the residential staff as well as the staff that provided In-home support services to our residents
during the height of the pandemic. Some staff actually moved into group homes for weeks at a time to keep our residents healthy and safe. Others went into participant family homes to provide services. These are our heroes!
What amazing individuals!
How do you thank someone who has done so much for all of us?
I’ve set up the “Our Staff Our Heroes” fundraising page to recognize
our awesome staff. Please join me by making a gift to honor our
heroes!
