Cape Abilities supporter issues challenge to fellow businesspeople

Hyannis builder E.J. Jaxtimer has made a generous donation to Apps Abilities, an initiative launched by Cape Abilities in partnership with Penguin Digital Design and Core Computers designed to teach people with disabilities new skills through the use of iPads. 

E.J. Jaxtimer is challenging businesses on Cape Cod to match his $700 donation so that Cape Abilities can expand the program to include more adults with disabilities.

Cape Abilities would like to thank E.J. and Terry Jaxtimer for their generous donation, and even more, for encouraging others to get involved. This program is costly, but shows incredible promise for improving the lives of people with disabilities. The early results have been amazing.
