My Project

Sweet Success: Chocolate-Making for Vocational Growth

Our students with multiple disabilities are building essential vocational skills through our Sweet Treat Making Class—and we need your help!

With the support of adaptive equipment, students actively engage in hands-on learning, gaining confidence, independence, and workplace readiness while creating delicious chocolates.

By donating, you’ll provide the chocolate melting wafers necessary to keep this meaningful experience going. Your generosity ensures our students can continue developing skills that will serve them in real-world employment opportunities, all while experiencing the joy of crafting sweet treats.

Every bar, truffle, and bite is a step toward a brighter future—thank you for making a difference in our classroom!
