A message from Neal Hallihan, COO of The Opportunity Tree:

Today, I’m thankful to be part of a dynamic & innovative environment that connects deeply with our shared humanity around the world.

Working alongside people of all ability levels of all ages while unapologetically integrating into the community on our own terms is at the heart of The Opportunity Tree’s work, mission and vision in building an inclusive society for us all.

I was first welcomed into our community back in 2004 as a volunteer in an afterschool program just like our Tree Fort and have never looked back. I’m thankful that my journey has brought me into our world and would be a fool to do anything else.

This Giving Tuesday, I invite you to make a contribution to The Opportunity Tree and be a part of our journey (you included!) in continuing to build toward a society that fully embraces individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities through inclusion, advocacy, and opportunities.

Thank YOU for being part of our work and happy holidays to you and yours from The Opportunity Tree!
