The 2012 edition of Building a Caring Community…One Taste at a Time was a great success, attracting 300 people and generating much needed funds for The Arc of Tempe's programs for those with intellectual and developmental disabilities.
Thank you to all of our wonderful and generous donors/sponsors and attendees who support this event and make all of the hard work worthwhile. And a huge thank you to all of the people (Board, staff, and volunteers) who worked so hard to make this event a success!
Save the date for next year - Sunday, March 3, 2013! See you there!

The Arc of Tempe exists because of a very basic, yet profoundly important belief: individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities are worthy of love and respect and deserve to be fully valued members of society.
It was from that premise that in 1965 a group of loving parents founded an organization that would eventually become The Arc of Tempe. Today, The Arc of Tempe provides a unique life skills and recreation program for those 16 years of age or older with intellectual or developmental disabilities (I/DD).
Our mission reflects our founding belief:
We empower and enrich the lives of persons with developmental disabilities by teaching self-advocacy, life skills, and civic involvement through hands-on learning and recreational activities.
