Thank you to the Children’s Opportunity Group for helping bring smart boards into our preschool classrooms! These interactive tools are making a world of difference for our children with developmental disabilities—supporting multi-sensory learning, encouraging communication and social interaction, and helping each child grow at their own pace. From practicing fine motor skills like writing and drawing to building gross motor skills through movement-based activities, our students are staying engaged, gaining confidence, and having fun while learning. Because of your generosity, they’re not only developing essential skills—they’re also discovering the joy of learning in new and exciting ways! 💙📚✨

What a proud moment! Recently, we joined Florida Senator Ana Maria Rodriguez for the presentation of an $820,000 state appropriation to launch a groundbreaking program that will forever change the lives of individuals with disabilities: “Hospitality with Purpose.”   We also thank Representative Chase Tramont, who championed this effort in the Florida House. We are grateful for your leadership and advocacy.   Many thanks as well to Dept. of Commerce Secretary Alex Kelly and his team! Their commitment to supporting individuals with disabilities is truly remarkable.   This project is made possible by our incredible partners: Luis Navas, owner of Château Mar Resort (formerly known as Inverrary), where the program will be implemented; Julie Price, CEO of Arc Broward; Summer Pfeiffer, CEO of Arc Florida; and our valued collaborators from the Florida Restaurant & Lodging Association, Broward Alliance, the City of Lauderhill, and others.   We are beyond proud to represent this extraordinary collaboration and to witness the life-changing opportunities this program will bring to so many deserving individuals.

We extend our deepest gratitude to AB7group for serving as a Premier Scholarship Supporter Sponsor at this year’s InspHired Luncheon, helping us open doors to meaningful employment and brighter futures. 💛 Join us at the event!
