To the Editor: On behalf of the board of directors, The PLUS Company would like to thank the supporters of our “Day of Dreams” golf classic, including the sponsors, celebrities and golfers who participated, as well as the community members who purchased tickets to our raffle. With their assistance, we raised more than $130,000 to support the dreams of adults with intellectual disabilities being served by The PLUS Company. While the agency works diligently to apply for grants to subsidize government funding, events such as this support programming including work skills, adult education and life skills programs. The PLUS Company provides vocational, residential, community supports and transitional services that allow adults with developmental disabilities to reach their full potential and become vital, productive members of our communities. Clients can be seen working in the private sector, participating in public speaking classes and literacy programs, attending college enrichment programs, using computers, traveling, leading and contributing in peer-led groups, attending activities at the YMCA, participating in music and art therapy, yoga and dance programs, participating in Special Olympics, attending theater, and maintaining parks and downtown areas. Our mission is to empower individuals with disabilities and maximize their independence. We encourage those we serve to live well-rounded, stimulating lives, and events such as the golf classic provide us the means to fund those opportunities. – KIM SHOTTES executive director The PLUS Company
