For over 50 years, Southside Services has been empowering youth and adults with developmental disabilities through programs that celebrate strengths, foster independence, and build true community inclusion.

But right now, we need your help more than ever.

Beginning November 1st, many of the people we serve are at risk of losing their SNAP benefits due to the government shutdown. With food costs rising and shelves running low, far too many face the heartbreaking reality of hunger.

💛 This season, your support provides more than meals — it offers stability, connection, and hope.

Your gift helps us:
✨ Reduce program costs for participants
🚐 Fund free transportation to community outings
🎨 Support supplies and activities in our Therapeutic Recreation Program
🥫 Build a safety net for clients facing food insecurity

Even $10 can make a meaningful difference — covering a community outing or reducing transportation costs from activities that bring joy and belonging.

Now more than ever, your compassion matters.
💛 Give today and help our community thrive.
