Your Gift Creates Lasting Change
United Rehabilitation Services (URS) has provided socially-engaging activities for every stage of life for 70 years, focused on improving communication and self-advocacy skills, while ensuring individuals with disabilities have opportunities to be active participants in the communities where they live, attend school, work, and play.
We rely on the support of individuals like you to sustain the safety net of services that families depend on for their well-being. In 2024 alone, your support helped URS serve 1,124 individuals with disabilities and their families—providing the meaningful programs that help them reach personal milestones, gain greater independence, and give purpose to their lives.
What Makes the Giving Circle Unique
The Annual Giving Circle recognizes unrestricted giving—donations that are not tied to event tickets, sponsorships, or grants. These flexible funds allow URS to respond to the greatest needs as they arise and sustain critical services that aren't fully covered by other funding sources.
The Annual Giving Circle was founded in 2018 to honor individual donors whose calendar-year contributions (January 1 – December 31) provide this vital unrestricted support. Anonymous giving is available.
