Funds raised by the Tree of Lights support the services The Arc Gateway provides to more than 1,150 adults and children in our community each year. Since 1954, The Arc Gateway has been empowering individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities, and this event provides a special moment for our community to honor those who bring brightness to their lives. Our mission is to create opportunities for individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities to live, learn, work, and grow to their maximum potential. As a non-profit organization, we rely on donations, grants, and special events like Tree of Lights to continue fostering independence and community inclusion.
