More Than a Moment: A Guide to Making a Lasting Impact at Laradon

For over 75 years, Laradon has been dedicated to empowering adults and students with intellectual and developmental disabilities. Today, we’re proud to serve over 454 people across five life-changing programs.

Our success is a testament to the compassion of our community, and we are forever grateful for your unwavering support.

How can I support Laradon? 

Volunteer 

Whether you’re cooking a meal for teens at the Calabrese Youth Center, planting flowers or playing games with participants, there are many ways to make a difference at Laradon through volunteering.

Donate

Laradon is always in need of donated items to help support the 400 kids and adults they serve.  The needs are constantly changing, and the best way to find the most up-to-date information is under our in-kind donation page on our website. 

Planned Giving 

The Laradon Foundation created the Calabrese Legacy Society to honor and thank those who remember Laradon with a gift in their estate plans. Some have named Laradon as a beneficiary in their wills or living trusts, while others have named it a beneficiary of a life insurance policy, IRA, or charitable trust.

For more information, please reach out to Alexandra Gage at alexandra.gage@laradon.org or (720) 974-6834

Your generosity means the world to us, but most importantly, it means the world to the people you directly help.
