As we approach the final days of 2025, we wanted to take one last moment to thank you and our Arc community for the support you show our mission.
This year, you met Avalon May through our annual campaign. You learned about her determination, her growth, and the ways The Arc has been able to walk alongside her and her family. Avalon’s story is uniquely hers, but the opportunity behind it is not. Every day, hundreds of individuals and families rely on The Arc for support, advocacy, and the chance to live fuller, more independent lives.
Because of donors like you, Avalon has had access to programs that have helped her build skills, confidence, and community which led to Avalon successfully stepping into her role as a valued employee of The Arc. Because of you, her family has known they were not navigating this journey alone. And because of you, The Arc is able to say “yes” when families reach out for help.
If you are considering making a gift to The Arc, we thank you very much! Your year-end contribution ensures that stories like Avalon’s continue—not just for one participant, but for every individual who turns to us for support in the year ahead.
Thank you for believing in the abilities, dignity, and potential of people with intellectual and developmental disabilities. Your generosity truly changes lives.
