Serving Up Fun!

Last month, incoming Freshman at Towson University visited The Arc Baltimore. Project Serve, a community service experience for freshman and transferring students, links new students with non-profits in the area. Students spent time at three of The Arc's day centers having fun with the people we support! Laughs, smiles and hugs were shared as the groups played bingo, danced and participated in adaptive sports. It was a fun day for all! Thank you TU!

United Way Gives Back

Federal and State employees from the United Way Combined Federal Campaign/Maryland Charity Campaign spent their volunteer charity kick off day with folks from The Arc Baltimore. They helped bowlers get strikes and bean bag players hit their mark again and again! Everyone had lots of fun!!!
