5th annual "Step Up for The Arc" Walk-a-Thon

Greg Schiano, Head Football Coach, Rutgers, The State University, is our state-wide spokesperson.
Coach Schiano says, "I hope you too will lend your support to a worthy and important charity, The Arc of Somerset County. Please Step-Up-For-The-Arc by being a sponsor or by forming a team for The Arc's annual Walk."
Last year we raised $20,000. Those funds were used to improve the quality of life for 39 children who attended our daycare programs, and 177 children aged 3 months to 3 years who needed speech and physical therapy through our Early Intervention Program.
277 adults received services and/or earned paychecks via our Employment Servies and 105 adults live in our 26 residences. 183 children, adolescents and adults enjoyed Camp Jotoni this past summer and 357 families were assisted through our Family Support Services program.
We hope to reach even more donors this year, with your help. Every dollar counts, so please add your name to the contributors list. Let us know if it is a contribution in honor of someone you love or a sponsorship of an individual or program at The Arc of Somerset.
We're just getting started. Corporate, school, family & friends teams are encouraged.
