About this Event

Do For One is a relationship building program based in NYC that brings isolated people with disabilities into greater community life through the power of one-on-one, freely given, enduring relationships across societal barriers. In our history, we have introduced over 130 one-to-one supportive relationships and support 95 enduring relationships to date.

In this introductory session you will learn about Do For One’s approach in addressing the core issue of devaluation that people with disabilities face and why personal and freely-given relationships is our response.

We ask, “What is stopping us from forming relationships across societal barriers and how can we overcome them?”



Agenda:

Doors open @ 10:15AM. Please try to arrive on time so we can begin promptly at 10:30 AM.

The presentation will run promptly from 10:30-11:45AM. You will gain a deeper understanding of the history and philosophy behind Do For One’s mission. You will hear stories about real Do For One relationships and learn about a number of ways for you to support our mission and get involved.

There will be time from 11:45-12:15PM for Q+A and one on one conversations with Do For One Staff. We would love to get to know you and what interests you about Do For One's mission!

If you are running late, and your time of arrival is later than 10:40AM, we ask that you attend a future session instead as attending the FULL orientation is a requirement for participants in our program.



The workshop will be led by:

Andrew Oliver, Do For One’s Founder & Executive Director

Ben Tien, Do For One’s Program Coordinator

Jane Yoon, Do For One's Program Director

Devon Ray Hillary, Do For One Partner & Emcee

Once you register for the orientation session through Eventbrite, you will be e-mailed more information and reminders leading up to the event.

This 2-minute video will give you a quick overview of why and how Do For One got started.

Come journey with us!
