What happens when we combine our mission with your mission? A great project? A helping hand? The solution to a problem? Hope for a child with a disability? Maybe you haven’t included people with disabilities in your mission statement like AWS Foundation has, but, it’s possible your organization positively impacts them.

We invite you to creatively audit the abilities of your organization to discover ventures that, coupled with our grantmaking activities, expand your programs to include children and adults with disabilities. For more information, see the Applying for Grants page.

What We're All About

Your family, friends and community members—living to their full ability, and with independence. That’s why we’re here. The AWS Foundation envisions a community in which people with enduring intellectual and physical disabilities are engaged fully and meaningfully in all aspects of community life. Along with AWS (Anthony Wayne Services), the human services agency provider, we’re committed to helping children and adults with disabilities enjoy a higher quality of life and to be engaged in activities at home, work and play.

You can learn more about the people AWS and AWS Foundation serve and our programs at www.awsusa.com.

Thanks to help from AWS, people with disabilities can enjoy the fulfillment of having a job of their own and making a living.
