Brandon says he is “proud to be the first person customers see – it makes me and them feel happy.” Funds also provide services for people such as Kenyata Cooper , who lives with cerebral palsy and glaucoma and says, “If I did not have my physical therapy, I would be lost!” Your generosity helps creativity blossom for people like Nick Kilpatrick , who has built skills as a craftsman and musician with the help of a self-determination assistant. “I like to make new friends, along with the people I work with,” Nick says, “I really enjoy learning new things and playing my music for everyone.” Additionally, contributions bring shelter and sense of community to people like John Hartman , who has found a safe place to live in one of People Inc.’s Affordable Apartments. John says, “I walked into my apartment overwhelmed and so very thankful.” Support a great cause, while enjoying special perks!
