Genesee ARC Awarded $10,000 Grant from Wal-Mart Foundation to Support TEAM Project
BATAVIA, New York - The Wal-Mart Foundation has awarded a grant for $10,000 to Genesee ARC, a non-profit organization that supports people with disabilities in partnership with their families and the community.
The grant funds will be used for the organization's TEAM - Together Empowered Advocates Meet - Program, a Genesee ARC leadership project for people with and without disabilities, ages 16-26. The participants in TEAM learn about community service, decision-making and assessing the needs of their local community.
Genesee ARC serves Genesee County in Western New York and has programs and residential sites in Batavia, Elba, Oakfield, and East Pembroke.
"Wal-Mart has been a friend to Genesee ARC since opening their doors in our community in 1995," said Donna Saskowski, Executive Director of Genesee ARC. "We appreciate this wonderful support of our TEAM program through the Wal-Mart Foundation." |
