Progress Industries is excited to visit local schools with an informational booth to share more about who we are, what we do, and how we support individuals and families in our community. Stop by to meet our team, ask questions, pick up resources, and learn about ways to get involved. We will be at Newton Berg Middle School on August 19th and at Newton High School on August 24th. We look forward to connecting with students, staff, and families!

On National Nonprofit Day, we want to take a moment to recognize the impact your generosity can have on the people we support.

Gifts to the P.I. Foundation help strengthen the programs and services provided by Progress Industries, providing people with disabilities opportunities to build independence, pursue meaningful goals, and achieve a fulfilling life in their community.

Every gift matters. Your generosity helps make these opportunities possible and supports a stronger, more inclusive community.

For more information about making a donation, please contact Melissa Butler at [email protected] or 641-275-3392. Donations can also be made online at https://progressindustries.org/ways-to-give/
