Helps Penn-Mar meet urgent needs and fund creative solutions that go beyond what government support alone can do.
Supports Career Ladders, helping DSPs earn credentials, grow professionally, and stay engaged in their vital work.
Funds staff training and helps people we support access activities they may not be able to afford on their own.
Supports improvements and updates to Penn-Mar residential homes—ensuring safe, welcoming spaces for the people we support.
Offers emergency help to team members during personal crises—because those who care for others deserve care, too.
The Penn-Mar Foundation exists to ensure that people with intellectual and developmental disabilities have access to the opportunities, support, and innovation they need to thrive.
Government funding helps us meet basic needs—but Penn-Mar’s mission has never been about doing the minimum. Through the Foundation, we raise the resources needed to go further: to build a person-centered culture, invest in our team, and create bold new possibilities for the people we support.
Your support through the Foundation helps make courageous lives possible.Â
