You can make a difference in the lives of individuals with disabilities. Consider one of these options:

• Employ or help find employment for someone with a disability. Remember, we’re looking for real work, regular wages in ordinary places…one person at a time.
• 2016 Agency Needs List
• Volunteer time.
• Advocate on behalf of individuals with disabilities – strengthen their voices so they can be heard and understood. (OCARC, People First Wisconsin)

For Portal to continue providing meaningful and enriching services for people with disabilities, we must generate at least one-third of our annual operating revenues through gifts, grants and fundraisers.

We hope you will consider Portal worthy of your support.
