This Giving Campaign is Honor of Joe Siecinski, our dear and beloved board member and business mentor for 15 years. College of Adaptive Arts is mourning the loss his unexpected passing this past April. Joe helped us grow and scale as an organization from a brand-new charity in 2009 to a thriving and fiscally sound charity 16 years later. CAA simply wouldn't be where we are now without him.

Joe believed that if CAA could raise $1 for every $1 of student's tuition that we CAA would be in a true financial position to be sustainable, and more importantly, replicable. So, in his honor, we have launched this very personal fundraiser with the goal of raising $150,000 by June 30, 2026.

CAA is 501 (c)(3) nonprofit organization and receives limited governmental support due to its unique and novel nature filling an accessible higher education gap for adults with IDD. Please help bring Joe's vision into full fruition in this last leg of CAA's fiscal year.

Any gift, no matter the size, will help change the life of a student forever who historically has believed that higher education is not a viable option past the age of 22.
