To get involved in spreading cheer this holiday season, stop by one of these Tree of Joy locations, pick up a gift tag and return the unwrapped gift by Dec. 12.
Mission Nutrition a Huge Success

The Arc Lane County helped teach students at Two Rivers-Dos Rios Elementary School about the importance of eating a balanced diet at a Mission Nutrition event on Oct. 24

In addition to learning about nutritious food, students had the opportunity to shop at a farmers market and take fresh produce home. Watch the KMTR News Report about the event.

Thanks to all the participants, volunteers and community partners who helped make this event a terrific success.
Holiday Party Preparations Underway

Next month, The Arc will prepare and serve a delicious holiday meal for more than 150 families raising a child with a disability and more than 250 adults who experience disabilities. If you would like to donate a ham, turkey, potatoes or other holiday food for these meals, please contact Sina .

We also need lots of extra helping hands to wrap gifts and prepare food during the holiday season. Sign up and help make a difference in the lives of people who experience disabilities.
Happy Thanksgiving

At this time of year, The Arc Lane County would like to thank its participants, community partners, donors, volunteers and staff for an amazing year. We are grateful to live, work and recreate in such a generous community.

We wish you and your family a wonderful start to the holiday season. Happy Thanksgiving and happy feasting!
