Event Details

 

Join Columbus Gives Back for a game night with residents of the Heinzerling Foundation.  The Heinzerling Foundation is a community of non-ambulatory residents with severe or profound mental retardation and multiple disabilities. We will bring a few of the residents into the recreation room to play a few games or crafts.  Last time, we  played musical chairs, bingo, and a few other fun games.

Unlike many of our events, this will involve personal contact with those that we are serving.  It is a truly rewarding experience.

 

When: Tuesday, March 16, 2010, 6 PM to 8 PM

Where: Heinzerling Foundation, 1800 Heinzerling Drive  Columbus, OH 43223-3698

How to find the group:  meet in the front lobby at 6PM.  Volunteers will sign in and then tour the facility before game night begins.

After the event:  We will go out to Tip Top Kitchen and Cocktails for food and drinks.

About the Heinzerling Foundation: The Heinzerling Foundation serves a community of non-ambulatory residents with severe or profound mental retardation and multiple disabilities. They range in age from infancy to mature adults, with some spending their entire lifetime at the Foundation.

Residents are admitted to the Foundation based upon their individual development criteria, without regard to race, religion, or the ability to pay. Operating costs for the facilities and residents' basic needs are provided by state and federal funds. Gifts, grants, bequests and special events make possible the specialized programs and costly equipment essential to meet the needs of each resident.
