[Fredslist] "Project Happy" needs your help

[Judy Mines]

Hello Gothamites,



On Saturdays I volunteer at a program held at Hunter College called 
"Project Happy"
I recently found out that Easter Seals is dropping their sponsorship of 
this program.
The funding is not as much of an issue as finding a new foundation to 
sponsor
the program since it is in conjunction with Hunter College.

Below you will find the mission statement and a link to a short movie 
clip that gives
you an idea of what we do.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Judy Mines

Mission Statement


Project HAPPY’s mission is to help young people with mental and 
physical disabilities develop important life skills by providing them 
with the opportunity to participate in sports and recreational 
activities.


We aim to:

•	Help our participants develop essential social and athletic skills 
through a variety of team and individual sports as well as artistic 
programs such as   dance and arts and crafts.

•	Encourage our participants, vast majority of whom live in low-income 
and often single-parents homes, to develop self confidence and esteem 
and use physical activities as a healthy outlet for their energy and 
emotions.

•	Help our participants advocate for themselves and pursue purposeful 
and productive lives.

•	Inspire our volunteers to pursue health-related careers, and support 
and advocate for people with disabilities.



Thanks,
Judy Mines
