Welcome!

Celebrating Abilities Inc. started as a support group located in southwest Florida for parents of children with different abilities. We are no longer active as a group because we've all moved on to other areas of the United States. I've decided to keep the blog active so that information can be shared with our loyal families and some new ones, too.

We've utilized the wonderful services at Ronald McDonald House and I can't ever repay them for their kindness and generosity........except possibly NOW:

3rd Annual Pennies from the Heart Campaign - April 1st through May 3rd. This campaign, sponsored by the News-Press, Naples Daily News and the Gulf Coast Town Center, will be conducted in Lee, Collier, Hendry, Glades and Charlotte counties. WINK-TV's Lois Thome is the Honorary Chair. In partnership with FGCU, the athletic students and others will pick up the pennies from area schools and businesses taking part in the campaign. It combines the power of children with the fun of collecting pennies to bring awareness and raise money to help support the Ronald McDonald House Charities of SWFL and the Care Mobile of Collier county. The following events are planned to support this campaign:

Count Day - May 3rd - Pennies will be counted at the McDonald's Restaurant at Gulf Coast Town Center. Schools, businesses and other participants will be able to bring their collected donations for a fun-filled day with raffles, prizes and a special guest.

FGCU Baseball Double Header Post Pennies Volunteer Acknowledgement - May 10th - This event will commence at 1:00 pm with Ronald McDonald throwing the first pitch. FGCU athletic students and others will be recognized for their volunteer efforts in the campaign.
