    Carey Services Artists Create Holiday Cards

    Carey Services is selling holiday cards that feature holiday-themed artwork created by artists participating in our new art studio. We’ve selected six pieces of art that will be turned into holiday cards you can buy and send this holiday season.

    Each card will have a simple holiday message to reflect the spirit of the season: “Wishing You the Best This Holiday Season.”

    You can order an assortment package of 12 5-inch by 7-inch cards and envelopes (two of each piece of art) until Dec. 8. Each 12 pack is $19; the artists who created the cards will receive a portion of the proceeds for their work.

    Carey Services Participating in Giving Tuesday

    For years, Black Friday has been a national obsession.

    With the rise of online shopping, Cyber Monday (the Monday after Black Friday) has become one of the biggest shopping days of the year.

    Recently, a new trend called Giving Tuesday has begun growing to provide people a chance to donate their time, talents and treasure as the holiday season opens.

    Carey Services will part of the Nov. 29th Giving Tuesday observance. As you think about how you might give on that day, consider the many opportunities you have to connect with Carey Services and the work we do to help people with disabilities turn abilities and barriers into opportunities.

    One of the newest ways we create opportunities is through a new program that allows clients to express themselves artistically. We have a dedicated art studio where clients paint, sew and build items that allow them to be creative and express themselves in their own individual way. Many of the items they produce also are assembled into larger collaborative art pieces. Your Giving Tuesday gift to Carey Services will help our clients express themselves more than they have been able to before.

    You could donate money to help with art supplies, or you could donate you time and talent to help provide our clients new artistic ideas and additional hands to bring their ideas to fruition. Or let us know if you have ideas on how you would like to connect with us.

    You can donate online here.
