“Sponsors are the key to our events,” said Judi Gerding, Founder and President of The Point/Arc. “And while B105 is our media sponsor, Granite World is a major presenter of the event for us.”
The Point/Arc was founded by a group of parents fighting for the educational rights of their children, who were diagnosed with an intellectual and developmental (I/DD) disability. The mission – to help people with disabilities achieve their highest potential educationally, socially, residentially, and vocationally. More than this, The Point/Arc has been an organization that identifies gaps in services and provides care and support to fill these gaps – even when government funding sources are not available.
“Thanks to an extremely generous community,” Gerding said, “All Point/Arc programs continue to grow year-after-year.”
