A note from Robin:
Give for Good day is here! And this is a day that always makes me reflect on another year as part of the Mattingly Edge community. So many great people committed to the success of people with disabilities. Smart, competent, passionate, wonderful people.
This year marks 10 years since the day I walked though the door of that old building on Newburg Road begging for help. Today, Graham’s been at his job at Brown Foreman for over three years. He owns his own home. He goes and comes just like we all do. He is happy and has learned to do as much as possible on his own, and remember, he’s just one person. Mattingly Edge serves lots of people just like Graham.
In this climate of removing people from Medicaid rolls and cutting benefits, agencies like Mattingly (and there ARE none like Mattingly) are hurting. Many have closed.
This year, I’m just going to come out and say it. How about a big fat donation?
For good lives. Give for Good Lives!
All of us have a role in life we're proud to hold—employee, volunteer, homeowner, parent, spouse—the list goes on.
But people with disabilities are frequently left out from the pursuit of socially valued roles.
Not because they cannot achieve or fulfill these roles, but because society does not expect them to.
Without expectation, there is no opportunity.
At Mattingly Edge, we know that with high expectations and quality support, opportunity starts to unfold around those with disabilities.
When we expect and support people with disabilities to work, go to college, own their own home, and contribute to their communities, they do.
When we expect and support people with disabilities to become employees, volunteers, homeowners, parents, and spouses, they do.
Your support directly benefits Kentuckians with disabilities to find their people, find their place, and share their gifts with the world!
