JARC Kicks off Fall Campaign to Raise $1.2 Million

    BLOOMFIELD HILLS, Mich. – JARC, a nonprofit serving adults with developmental disabilities in Metro Detroit, is looking to raise $1.2 million in funds to support the important programs and services they provide to enrich the lives of people with developmental disabilities.

    The nonprofit kicked off the fall campaign with their annual fundraiser on Sunday, Oct. 15, at The Magic Bag in Ferndale. 

    “This fall fundraising campaign is a vital step toward our financial ability to support the people with developmental disabilities that JARC serves,” said JARC CEO Shaindle Braunstein. “Through the annual fundraiser and the generous financial support of the community, JARC can provide a wide range of social, recreational and religious opportunities that ensures that everyone we serve can have the same experiences that you or I, or anybody else in our community, would have.”

    The funds raised in this fall fundraising campaign will enrich the lives of individuals with developmental disabilities served by JARC in 45 locations in metro Detroit. Government funding provides JARC with the necessities to serve those in their care and donations to JARC support everything that makes life fun and exciting for those they serve, such as recreational and social programs, and other quality-of-life opportunities.

    “It’s a great opportunity to … (raise) money for the important programs and services that provide the people JARC serves an opportunity to build connections, uncover passions and create memories,” said event chair and JARC Board member Andrew Luckoff.
