Giving Tuesday – Make an Impact with Via
What is Giving Tuesday?
Giving Tuesday is a global day of generosity that takes place each year on the Tuesday after Thanksgiving. It’s a chance for people everywhere to come together and support causes that matter most. This year, Giving Tuesday falls on Tuesday, December 2—and we invite you to join us in making a difference.
Why Give to Via?
At Via, our mission is to empower individuals with disabilities and their families through programs that foster independence, inclusion, and opportunity. Every donation helps us provide essential services like job training, community integration, and family support.
Your generosity fuels life-changing outcomes. Here’s how your gift makes an impact:
- $25 gives a child with disabilities the joy of independent play by providing a specially adapted switch for their favorite toy.
- $150 opens the door for three adults to experience the simple pleasures of life—sharing laughter at a ball game, enjoying dinner out, or catching a movie with friends.
- $500 creates an unforgettable week at Camp Via for a student with disabilities, filled with fun activities, friendships, and memories that last a lifetime.
A Success Story: Meet Jimmy
Meet Jimmy
Jimmy has been thriving at his job at Giant for over three years. He loves working alongside his co-workers and takes pride in helping customers by carefully bagging their groceries. Jimmy receives just one hour of support each week, thanks to the excellent natural supports at Giant who adjust their pace and working styles to accommodate him. His warm personality shines through as he greets every customer with a smile and polite words like “sir” and “ma’am.” Jimmy’s story is a wonderful example of how inclusion and support create meaningful employment opportunities.
