At KenCCID, our mission is to create opportunities for individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities to thrive, connect, and reach their fullest potential. While our dedicated staff makes this work possible every day, there is another group of people who quietly make an incredible impact—our volunteers.
This month, we’re proud to recognize Ally Sileo, whose generosity and enthusiasm have become a valued part of our Arts & Crafts Program.
Whether she’s helping individuals create seasonal projects, encouraging creativity, or simply sharing conversation and laughter around the craft table, Ally brings something that can’t be measured—her heart. Every project completed is more than a craft. It’s an opportunity for self-expression, confidence building, social interaction, and joy.
Volunteers like Ally remind us that sometimes the greatest gift you can give is simply your time.
More Than Helping—Creating Meaningful Connections
Volunteering at KenCCID isn’t just about lending a hand. It’s about building relationships, creating memories, and opening doors to new experiences.
Whether assisting with an art project, participating in a community outing, or helping behind the scenes at a special event, volunteers become part of a community where everyone belongs.
Every smile shared, every conversation started, and every encouraging word helps create an environment where individuals can grow in confidence and experience meaningful inclusion.
We Need You!
As we prepare for an exciting season of events, we’re looking for caring individuals, families, community groups, and businesses who want to make a difference.
There are many ways to get involved, including:
- 🎨 Assisting with Arts & Crafts activities
- 💪 Supporting fitness and recreational programs
- 🎉 Helping at community events
- 🤝 Spending time with the individuals we serve
- ❤️ Sharing your talents, hobbies, or professional skills
No matter your experience, there’s a place for you at KenCCID.

Giving back together not only strengthens communities—it strengthens your team.
