Today at our Aktion Club meeting, our members spent time writing positive notes and talking about choosing kindness, helping others, standing up against bullying, and being the best version of ourselves we can be 💙

So proud of the encouragement, compassion, and positivity shared throughout today’s meeting!

Our Summer Amazon Wishlist is live! ☀️

As EFGC continues to grow, so do the needs of our programs and Participants — and we are so incredibly grateful for any item purchased from our wishlist this summer.

This year, we will also be expanding into additional space at Christ Wesleyan Church right next door to help support our growing summer programming! With more space comes more opportunities, more activities, and of course, more supplies needed to make it all happen for our Participants.

Every item, big or small, helps support a fun, engaging, and meaningful summer at EFGC, and we truly appreciate the love and support from our community. 💙

We loved having Reed from Bake Blue Bakery come speak to our Exceptional Life Club earlier this week! 💙🧁

Reed shared his journey of living with autism and how he and his mom turned a love for baking into Bake Blue — a bakery built on purpose, inclusion, and creating opportunities for adults with disabilities. Our Participants loved hearing his story, learning about the business, and being encouraged by all he has accomplished.

Thank you, Reed, for spending the morning with us and reminding everyone that your differences can become your greatest strength.

We loved having you at EFGC! ✨
