Evergreen provides a wide variety of dynamic programs and services, including community homes, day work centers, supportive living and employment services, art centers and social enterprise projects for persons with IDD - intellectual and developmental disabilities. As a thoughtful person who cares about people with disabilities, you can play an important role in making their daily lives healthier, safer, and more comfortable. Because most of the people served by Evergreen will require life-long care, your contribution will have a lasting impact by helping others obtain quality long-term care for medical and behavioral needs.

At Evergreen, we promote a family environment of love, acceptance, value, and friendship. We strive to help society understand disabilities and encourage inclusion and diversity throughout North Texas. The services provided by Evergreen can only continue with the generous support of donors like you.

Needs

There are still many people with intellectual and developmental disabilities who reside in uncomfortable, inadequate facilities with little privacy or basic human dignity. We trust that you, like us, feel that people with disabilities deserve a normal, enriched life that provides more than just a bed, three meals, and a day spent watching TV.

Although money can't buy love, family, or a sense of dignity, your contribution enables the compassionate staff at Evergreen to provide these things to those we serve. You can transform the lives of those most in need in our community by taking action now to help Evergreen sustain our commitment to the health, safety, and comfort of those entrusted to our care. Please consider making a donation and joining our Evergreen family today!
