Description

Please help build an inclusive community for people with disabilities. For more than 70 years, MSS has been creating robust innovative communities for people with disabilities throughout the Twin Cities. We envision a future where people are supported in living inclusive lives through employment, creating and selling art, engaging in fun activities, and forging lasting friendships.

 

We hope you will invest in supporting people with disabilities through our annual gala, Celebrate! An Evening of Possibilities.  Please consider making a difference by providing an in-kind auction donation to this inspiring evening celebrating the people we serve.

 

Last year Celebrate! was virtual, a new experience for us and our supporters. Celebrate! donors helped raise a record $125,000 to support Health and Wellness programs at MSS. Those funds have been critical to easing the sense of isolation people have been feeling during the pandemic.

 

On Saturday, September 18, 2021 we will come together to celebrate building inclusive lives for people with disabilities. We don’t know if the gala will be virtual or in-person this year but we promise a fun engaging evening, either way.

 

Donating a gift certificate, experience, or item is a great way to receive visibility in the community – and make a difference at the same time. Significant gifts and supporters are recognized on social media leading up to the gala and all auction donations are credited in the online auction. This is a great way to reach a new audience.
