At The Didlake Foundation, we believe in a world where people of all abilities can thrive through connection, community, and opportunity.

Founded to support the life-changing work of Didlake, Inc., our 501(c)(3) foundation is dedicated to empowering the disability community by eliminating barriers, creating opportunities and fostering inclusive communities. We fundraise, advocate, and cultivate partnerships that expand access, eliminate barriers, and build a more equitable future – one where every person is valued and empowered.

Why We Exist

Didlake, Inc. has spent six transformative decades serving individuals with disabilities – first as a pioneering school, and now as a leader in adult employment services and day support. As its fundraising partner, The Didlake Foundation was created to ensure this mission continues to grow stronger and more sustainable with every passing year.

We are here to:

  • Fill gaps in services not covered by traditional funding
  • Educate and engage the community through advocacy and awareness
  • Create access to employment and life enrichment through meaningful connections

Whether you’re contributing to core infrastructure or groundbreaking programs, your gift creates tangible, lasting change in our community.
