2017LADD SPONSORS

Whether it is John fixing bicycles or Marc’s movie blog, or our groundbreaking film festival, LADD pays it forward by making our Greater Cincinnati a better place to live for all of us.

In 2017 we asked you to join us in spreading kindness and generosity in our communities. We asked to you to help people see how inclusion of adults with developmental disabilities makes our businesses, schools and neighborhoods better. You unequivocally answered the call! With your support LADD launched an ambitious five year strategic plan: PLAN 2021. We are continuing LADD’s tradition of excellence in the area of housing, employment and meaningful engagement, but also envision LADD as a positive force for community development—adding value in the places we engage and furthering our region’s efforts to build a more welcoming and diverse community.

We asked for your kindness and generosity to allow us to live that vision. You answered the call realizing that every dollar you gave allowed adults with developmental disabilities to do the work of making our world better. Your support inspired a life full of laughter, love and paying it forward every day.

Sincerely,

Susan Brownknight CEO, LADD Inc.
