The Arc, Oneida-Lewis Chapter

🎉 As we step into the new year, let’s continue to empower, inspire, and support one another. Here’s to another year of impact and growth! #happynewyear2025

🐾 Instead of exchanging gifts, our Executive Management and Leadership teams decided to purchase goods to donate to the Humane Society of Rome and LEWIS COUNTY HUMANE SOCIETY to support animals in need. #communitylove #ReasonForTheSeason #communitysupport

This holiday season, we celebrate the joy, love, and togetherness that unite us all. 🎄🕎 🕯️ May your days be merry and bright, your lights shine warmly for all eight nights, and the principles of unity, self-determination, and community guide and inspire us. Wishing everyone a season filled with peace, love, and happiness. #happyholidays #merrychristmas #happyhanukkah #joyuskwanzaa

🔔Where others see obligation, people we support see opportunity. Volunteering and integration are tenets of Arc programs. Big kudos to Wally and Mike, just two of the amazing people at The Arc ringing the bell for The Salvation Army at Tops Friendly Markets in Lowville this year. Thank you for spreading holiday cheer and making a difference! #community #communityfirst #RedKettle
