We provide funding and resources for quality life experiences to persons living with life-long disabilities.

 

Our Mission

Florence County Disabilities Foundation was established to provide funding for the Florence County Disabilities and Special Needs Board. The Foundation seeks support from various sources such as corporate donations, fundraising activities and grants, as well as volunteer assistance for the agency.

The Foundation Board promotes making a difference in people's lives by sponsoring opportunities such as summer camps, talent contests, holiday meals, uniforms for special olympic athletes and other activities and programs. These accomplishments support the Board's vision to provide the highest quality array of services to meet the needs of everyone being served.

Contributions are essential to the Foundation as it continues to improve the quality of life for individuals with disabilities. Additionally, the Foundation has the authority to hold, invest, manage or arrange for investment any funds or use of property to benefit the Board. In-kind contributions allow us to meet the needs of people being supported by the Board.
