Just 10 days until Erie Gives!

Every family deserves access to resources, support, and a community that understands their journey.

We hope you’ll keep us in mind on Erie Gives Day. Every gift—no matter the size—helps make a difference. 💙

Every family deserves to know where to turn when they need help.

Rhiannon’s family is just one of hundreds who have discovered new resources, made meaningful connections, and found support through the Disability Resource Fair of NWPA.

Your Erie Gives donation on August 11 helps us continue providing these opportunities at no cost to families.

💙 Every dollar helps us:
• Keep the annual fair free for families
• Expand year-round programs and events
• Connect individuals with disabilities of all ages to life-changing resources
• Build a stronger, more inclusive community

Mark your calendar for August 11 and help us continue making these connections possible.

Stronger Together. Greater Impact.

The Disability Resource Fair of NWPA wouldn't be where it is today without incredible community partners who believe in inclusion, independence, and opportunity for people with disabilities.

This Erie Gives Day (August 11), we hope you'll consider supporting not only the Disability Resource Fair of NWPA, but also two organizations that have been instrumental in our mission:

🧡 Achieva's The Arc Erie County PA
Helping individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities and their families build meaningful, inclusive lives.

🩵 Service Coordination Unlimited, Inc
Providing person-centered supports that empower people to live with dignity, independence, and choice.

Together, we're creating opportunities, connecting families with resources, and building a stronger, more inclusive community.

If you're able, please consider making a gift to one (or all three!) of these amazing organizations.

What do you have tucked away that another family could use today? 💜

Check the back of the closet.
Look in the basement.
Open that storage tote.

Did your child outgrow adaptive clothing? Billy Shoes? Sensory toys? Communication devices? Learning games? Kitchen tools? Weighted items?

These are the items families ask us for every day—and they’re often the hardest to find and the most expensive to replace.

We’re incredibly grateful for the wheelchairs, walkers, hospital beds, and other large equipment we’ve already received. ❤️ Now we’re hoping to fill our exchange with the everyday items that help children and adults thrive at home.

Every donation—big or small—can help another family.

📍 Adaptive Equipment Exchange
🗓 Sunday, October 11, 2026
🕙 10:00 AM–2:00 PM
📍 Asbury Barn, Erie

If you’re cleaning out closets or organizing before the holidays, please keep us in mind. Your gently used adaptive items can make a life-changing difference for another family.
