THE ARC GLOWHAS A LOT OF HEART CHAPTERS CELEBRATE DEVELOPMENTAL DISABI L I T I ES AWARENESS MONTH (DDAM)
The fourth annual Have a Heart Cookie Sale and window raffle fundraiser at Case-Nic Cookies of Medina yielded BIG results for Arc GLOW! The Developmental Disabilities Awareness Month event is a tag-team effort between Nicole Tuohey and her mother, Mary Lou, owner of Case-Nic Cookies. The Touheys started this event in 2019 to give back and support programs and services at The Arc GLOW. It's their way of recognizing the positive impact GLOW's services have had on Nicole's life, and they are grateful for community support each year. Cookie sales in 2022 totaled $2,512.00 and the window raffle raised $670.00. A last-minute donation of $18.00 bumped the total raised to $3,200.00. "This is incredible," said MarcAnthony Bucci, the agency's Director of Development and Public Relations. "Nicole and Mary Lou do indeed 'have a heart' for The Arc GLOW and we are thankful for their support."
Funds raised will benefit agency Day Hab and Rec programs in Genesee and Orleans Counties, Camp Rainbow in Lyndonville and KidStart in Mount Morris. Nicole wanted to show her appreciation for The Arc Glow's programs and services and asked that funds be utilized to support programs across all four Counties served by the Chapter.
