May is Prader Willi Syndrome Awareness Month🧡.

A common characteristic is an ongoing feeling of hunger caused by problems with appetite regulation.

Individuals with PWS typically need to live in specific environments with limited access to food in order to prevent overeating and the complications that can result from never feeling full.

This May, help spread awareness, kindness, and understanding for individuals living with Prader Willi syndrome and their families. Advocacy, education, and inclusion can make a lasting impact.

Today we celebrate our amazing kiddos and their families. We celebrate you today and everyday!

📣Attention! Attention! Can you help us make summer camp an awesome experience for our teens and young adults!?

⛺Camp Infinity is our weeklong, overnight camp for teens and young adults with disabilities at Camp Twin Lakes. Our campers have an amazing time hanging out with old friends and making new ones, exploring adventures outdoors 🚣🏾‍♂️and nurturing new skills indoors. It is a great time to sharpen those independence skills away from home in a fun and supportive setting.

🛒Please help us make this an amazing summer by purchasing camp supplies through our Amazon wish list. Check out our Wish List: https://focus-ga.org/wishlist/

A huge THANK YOU to the amazing Voya team! 🧡

We had an amazing time hanging out at Voya during their National Days of Service. What a super wonderful group of people who knocked out our volunteer projects with a quickness.

We are incredibly grateful to the dedicated employees at VOYA for generously giving their time to help us prepare for Camp Hollywood and for writing heartfelt notes of encouragement to families with children at CHOA. Each note will accompany CHOA meal vouchers to help cover meals while families remain by their child’s side in the hospital.

Thanks to the generous support of the Voya Foundation, we were able to provide CHOA meal vouchers, stock the snack carts on the Technology-Dependent Intensive Care Unit for one month at both AMB and Scottish Rite hospitals, and purchase much-needed items for Camp Hollywood. Your compassion and support make a meaningful difference—thank you! 🎉
