Project Independence Partners With OC Community Foundation Fundraiser

Project Independence (PI), a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization serving adults with developmental disabilities in Orange County, joined eight other nonprofits for Empowering Possibilities Giving Day, May 7, hosted by Orange County Community Foundation to support neighbors with disabilities.

The 24-hour online effort raised a total of $189,650 with 285 donors participating. A total of $13,650 was raised by PI.

“We were pleased to team again this year with our fellow nonprofits serving those who need us most,” said Project Independence CEO Robert Watson. “We are honored to serve adults with developmental disabilities. As a result of the Empowering Possibilities fundraising campaign, our entire community grows stronger. We thank everyone for your compassionate support. We could not do what we do without you!”

The other eight participating organizations included Beyond Blindness, Down Syndrome Association of OC, Life College, Reimagine, Sandy Feet Initiative, Surf and Turf Therapy, Tomorrow's Leadership Collaborative Charter School (TLC), and Vocational Visions.

Eighty-seven cents of every dollar raised by PI goes directly to support vital programs for people with developmental disabilities. For additional information about PI, please visit www.proindependence.org. To donate, visit https://proindependence.org/donate-now/
