About the Grape Escape
The Annual Public Fundraiser for VOICE Inc.
Our Agency is committed to eliminating language-based discrimination and the effects of that discrimination by providing communication assistance resulting in freedom of choice and equity in the reception of community-based services and also by empowering people with disabilities to make positive life choices, cultivate a strong support network with peers and engage in learning new skills so they may live more self-sufficient, productive lives.
This event allows us to raise money so that we can empower children and people with disabilities through enabling positive life experiences.
- allow children to go to Deaf/KODA camps
- provide individuals with disabilities the opportunity to attend events they could not otherwise afford, and
- assist in offsetting the cost of interpreting services to qualifying individuals and businesses.
