Dear Friends,
National Disability Institute has one wish this holiday season – and every season since our organization began nearly a decade ago – economic independence for all persons with disabilities.
It’s a mission we advance every day. Through every initiative and by working with each of our 800 partners in 100 cities across America, we have made great progress to help working-age adults with disabilities living in poverty take steps toward financial independence and self-sufficiency. We are innovators and pioneers, improving access to financial education, asset development and affordable and accessible financial services for people with disabilities and their families nationwide, helping more than 1 million persons with disabilities receive tax refunds of more than $1 billion dollars.
National Disability Institute needs your support to continue to change lives. Watch this video to see how we are making a difference and how we will continue to put your tax-deductible donation to work to advance economic independence for all persons with disabilities.
All the best to you and yours for a joyous and peaceful holiday season!
