#GivingTuesday Help these Elves give Ability Awareness!
Today is #GivingTuesday
Do you have extra change JINGLING in your pocket?
check out those bells!
Feel like using it to give a GIFT that keeps on giving?
It would be considered an EAR-ly Christmas present!
Donations would make us TWINKLE from our little tiny elf heads to our toes!
Any small amount can help us reach our goal of $500 this Tuesday. (hey… who you calling small?!)
So far, these lovely photos, from JLV Photography in Fort Collins, are our first GIFT!
Thank you to James and Mellisa for GIVING to Awesome in Action this season. …It was ELF-LY SWEET of you! (Oh yeah, we did use that horrible elf pun)
The money will help spread the JOY of feeling accepted and included to ALL types of people (and elves) this year!
Celebrate your Ability to be “Santa’s Little Helper” too!
Here at Awesome in Action, WE appreciate all you do!!
Open Streets: Cut the mustard, and Ride the Route this weekend in Fort Collins!
When asked about what he is looking forward to most this Sunday as part of Open Streets, Nick replies, “Mustard! Yes, folks, there will be vendors, who will most probably be offering, a mustard…which apparently is very exciting!
Open Streets is a hip new, FREE event in Fort Collins that Awesome in Action has the good fortune to participate in this weekend.
On Sunday, from 10 am to 3 pm, a route running from North to South Fort Collins will be blocked off to traffic in order to provide a safe family-fun environment.
There will be face paint, bouncy castles, games, sidewalk chalk, snacks, and treats all along the route offered by various organizations and businesses throughout Northern Colorado.
Awesome in Action will be hosting a booth of experiences. There will be an opportunity to race a friend in a manual wheelchair obstacle course,
converse or direct a friend through a maze with Augmentative Communication (using speech devices supplied by our favorite PRC Representative, Samantha Strong!)
and try out adaptive sidewalk chalk! (IF you can get it away from NICK for long enough!!)
