Giving Tuesday

Giving Tuesday is November 28, 2023. This is a day that encourages people to do good. Over the past 10 years, this idea has grown into a global movement that inspires people to give and celebrate generosity.

For Giving Tuesday, Hope Haven will be raising funds for the My Day program to purchase 10 iPads with Proloquo2Go software! This software will empower individuals with communication disabilities by giving them the tools they need to discover their voice and reach their full potential through learning and communication.

Proloquo2Go is an app used as a daily communication tool for children, teens, and adults with communication disabilities. This symbol-based app helps users learn how to express themselves. Proloquo2Go puts the user’s development first, with innovative features based on clinical knowledge and user research. Completely customizable and designed for a range of fine-motor and visual skills, the app’s versatility makes it useful for non-speaking people with autism, down syndrome, cerebral palsy, and a range of other diagnoses or speech impediments.

Our goal is to raise $3,000 on Giving Tuesday for the purchase of these iPads and software. A matching gift of $2,500 has been generously brought forward for Giving Tuesday. Please consider giving on Tuesday, November 28 to be a part of helping individuals with disabilities develop new skills and live a full, meaningful life!
