Season of Sharing Brings Holiday Joy

As the holiday season approaches—traditionally filled with joy and family gatherings—many families served by the San Diego Regional Center (SDRC) face overwhelming financial challenges. FDD has launched the Season of Sharing program to support these families, a heartfelt initiative that significantly impacts those in need. This program provides gift cards to SDRC clients, a lifeline for families who might otherwise struggle to afford holiday celebrations. Your support can make a significant difference in these families’ lives. 

Your support can make a significant difference in these families’ lives. With the number of SDRC clients increasing by 4,000 last year alone, the need for donations and sponsorships is more critical than ever. Each contribution, no matter the size, helps ensure that families experiencing financial hardship can still enjoy the warmth and joy of the holiday season.

Last year, FDD’s fundraising efforts raised nearly $20,000, providing essential assistance to approximately 135 SDRC families. FDD aims to raise $30,000 this year to meet the community’s growing needs. Achieving this ambitious goal relies on the generosity of community partners, sponsors, and supporters like you. Your contribution, regardless of size, is vital in reaching this goal. You have the power to make a difference.

Businesses and organizations can also significantly impact the community through sponsorship opportunities, showcasing their commitment to community well-being. Sponsorship supports SDRC families and offers positive visibility for your organization. For more information on sponsorship opportunities, don’t hesitate to contact Jill Weber, FDD Development and Marketing Manager, at jweber@foundationfordd.org or 858-256-2222.
