We're still smiling about this year's Golf Classic!

It was such a fun day at Tiffany Greens, and we're so grateful to everyone who came out to golf, volunteered, sponsored or supported the event in any way. We couldn't do what we do without this incredible community!

Most importantly, your support helps us continue creating opportunities for adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities.

We see firsthand how much having a job means to the adults we support at The Mission Project. 💙 It's about so much more than a paycheck. It's about building confidence, making connections, gaining independence and being part of a team.

This National Disability Employment Awareness Month, we're celebrating the employers who see what people with disabilities can bring to the workplace and give them the opportunity to shine!

Our 2026 Independence Walk brought The Mission Project community together at Broadmoor Park for a morning of movement, friendship and fun, with a brand-new format featuring walking laps, fitness stations and plenty of encouragement along the way.

We’re so grateful to everyone who walked, volunteered, sponsored, fundraised and helped make this year’s event such a success!
