We’re excited to share a special matching gift opportunity happening right now through Giving Tuesday! 🎉 Thanks to our Board of Directors, every dollar you donate will be matched dollar for dollar, up to $15,000! But here’s the best part: Your gift will enrich the lives of twice as many people with disabilities. 💙 Like Paulina, who’s learning to regulate her emotions and communicate thanks to sensory tools and technology. Or James, a non-verbal individual with autism who’s found his voice through art therapy. We can’t do this without you! Please consider donating today to double your impact and help even more people exceed their unique potential for a lifetime. 🙌 https://lnkd.in/gEzS_x3x

Little City recently celebrated the completion of a remarkable 10-year journey with the ribbon cutting of the sixth and final home in the Duffey Family Children’s Village! John and Becky Duffey, who have been the driving force behind the Village for the past decade, were there to cut the ribbon and see their vision become reality. A huge thank you to the Duffeys and to all the donors, supporters, board members, staff and families who helped make this dream possible. The future is brighter than ever for children with intellectual and developmental disabilities!
