Thank you Heather Geronemus for your longtime support of Arc Broward! We are so grateful for the way you advocate for our programs and people and especially touched by the special connections and relationships you've built over the last decade with the guys at Santa Fe House!

For the past 10 years, UKG has proudly adopted Arc Broward's Santa Fe Group Home, located close to our Weston campus. What began as an effort to connect the residents of this home to the broader community has evolved into something much greater. The men who live in this home have become more than neighbors—they’ve become our friends, and this friendship has given us far more than we could ever imagine. Each holiday season, we come together to fulfill the residents’ wish lists and spend time celebrating with them. This tradition is one of the most meaningful parts of the year, as it reminds us how small acts of care can create lasting bonds. Adopting the Santa Fe Group Home and our broader partnership with Arc Broward has been a personal passion of mine, and it was the first philanthropic partnership I helped bring to UKG early in my career. Seeing this relationship grow over the past decade has been a deeply rewarding experience, not only for me but for so many U Krewers who’ve had the chance to connect with this organization's special mission to transform lives by empowering people with disabilities and other life challenges to reach their full potential. By supporting this home and this org, we’ve not only helped advance this mission—we’ve also gained a deeper understanding of community, friendship, and the power of inclusion. Thank you to my amazing U Krew colleagues for your generosity and for showing the world what it means to live our company values. Together, we are making a difference that lasts far beyond the holidays. #UKGSocialImpact #DontGiveBackJustGive #WeAreUKG #TransformingLives #SupportInclusion Diane Alonso Phillipa Masin Andrew St. Lawrence Julie Price Kim Vassar Vanessa Seltzer Jenny Mackie Jessica Rodriguez, CFRE

Our latest e-newsletter is here, and today we’re shining a light on the transformative power of Empower, one of our core pillars that changes lives at Arc Broward.
