​We Could Use Your Support

The Beautiful Lives Project relies on volunteers and community leaders for help in planning and coordination. If you know of a person, group or organization that would be interested in helping us achieve our mission, please contact us.
The response to COVID 19 has forced many people to experience isolation and loneliness.  Hopefully, we will soon see the end of the social distancing programs.  Unfortunately, the issue of isolation and loneliness is an ongoing challenge for people with disabilities.  At the Beautiful Lives Project, it is our mission to defeat isolation and loneliness by facilitating events in communities across our nation for people with disabilities.  This year, through February, we were on a record pace to support over 6000 individuals at our events.  This would have amounted to a doubling of our participation during 2019.  The need for social distancing required by the COVID 19 response has completely shut us down for the past two months.  We want to be ready when the doors to our communities are open again.  Help us to recapture the lost momentum.  Your generosity will give us the ability to make up for lost time in enhancing the lives of people with disabilities.
