Feed the SEED - Support SPARC

The Self Protection, Advocacy and Rights Council  (SPARC) is a self advocacy group comprised of and operated by people with developmental and intellectual disabilities who share a desire to change the way people with disabilities are viewed by society. SPARC emphasizes social development, cooperation and the building of self esteem through shared accomplishments. Success of SPARC is visible through the organizing and sponsoring of local social and advocacy events and the development of training opportunities regarding the rights and values of people with disabilities.

This fund raising effort is for SPARC’s biennial Summit of Empowerment, Enrichment and Diversity  (SEED). SEED is a three day gathering that includes hands-on discovery, people friendly learning, great entertainment and fun workshops. The conference includes accessible workshops for a diverse audience on a wide range of topics with the goal of improving lives and creating a learning market place for attendees to share ideas.

SPARC needs your help to make this SEED Conference another successful and fantastic event that has attendees walking away with valuable information, new insights and lasting friendships. Help us Feed the SEED by making a donation today!
