Benefactors
Since 1994, Friendship Circle’s mission has been to give children with special needs friendship and inclusive opportunities. Blessed by the warm embrace and generous support of the community, Friendship Circle now operates a widely emulated, state-of-the-art educational and activity center. Friendship Circle has now over 700 teen and adult volunteers and serves thousands of families with children who have special needs.
We would like to thank the generous donors who have contributed to this campaign.
William & Audrey Farber
The Farber Soul Center is dedicated in honor of William & Audrey Farber & their family. As the founding supporters of the Soul Center, the Farbers have inspired many to unite around this project. Their efforts will make our community more inclusive & understanding of the incredible talents & potential that lie within individuals with special needs. Friendship Circle is honored to commemorate the significant contribution & dedication the Farber family has given to the future of individuals with special needs.
