Last Chance to Donate! Crowdfunding For Adaptive Equipment for Out & About

Yes, for one last time I’d like to encourage you to support Imagine!’s Out & About department’s “$20 for 20 Years” crowdfunding campaign, designed to help them provide more adaptive equipment and more opportunities for individuals to participate in structured programs designed to support their needs.

The campaign ends this weekend, so if you haven't already, please consider donating today. As of this posting, Out & About is already 72% of the way to their goal of $2,000, and every little bit will count as they work to get to the finish line!

Imagine!’s Out & About department offers community-based therapeutic recreation services for children and adults with developmental and intellectual disabilities. Our program provides opportunities for people to participate in activities designed to improve social skills, community involvement, and skills that enhance overall quality of life.

Why We Need Your Help

Our intention is to continue to enrich the quality of service by providing adaptive equipment and opportunities to participate in structured programs designed to support people’s needs. These items will make a huge difference:
  • Purchasing adaptive equipment so participants can swim, create art, play sports, and communicate their needs 
  • Ticket/admission fees for adaptive programs and events 
  • Partnerships with local organizations that provide therapeutic programs such as the National Sports Center for the Disabled (NSCD), Adaptive Adventures, and Medicine Horse Adaptive Riding Program 

Some specific examples of what your donation will fund

  • An afternoon of rock climbing with NSCD for one child
