What Your Giving Means to Us...
"Indian Creek Foundation is the best thing to happen in my brother Larry's life. And because it is so good for him, it has been good for our whole family. I want our community to know that their generosity helps more people and more families enjoy really good lives." ~ Dave Eisen, Indian Creek Board Member and Brother
"We fell in love with Indian Creek on our first visit because it just felt like family. My son has his independence, but with all the attentive care he needs. He also has friends, and and active life. Indian Creek has given him so many opportunities and resources that our family would not be able to provide on our own." ~ Marylin Gallo, Mom
"Community support makes our program thrive. When we have all the resources we need, our Day Program participants enjoy truly novel experiences that strengthen their skills, make their days more fun, and provide opportunities to engage in their interests. We are always thinking about each person's whole life experience and how to continually make it better." ~ Julianne Hirst, Day Program Coordinator
