Shana Tova from our Friendship Circle family!

Rosh Hashanah always arrives at a meaningful time for Friendship Circle, around our anniversary and often just after Walk4Friendship. It gives us a moment to reflect on the year behind us and look with excitement toward the one ahead.

We think about the growth we’ve witnessed in our participants, the new families who have become part of our circle, the staff members who have joined our team, and the friendships that continue to grow year after year.

And there is so much to look forward to in 5787: new programs, more Life Skills sessions, new opportunities to learn and grow, and so many moments together that we haven’t experienced yet.

As the shofar sounds once again, we’re reminded just how much can change in a year, while the heart of our community remains the same.

May 5787 bring you and your family joy, peace, fulfillment, good health and lots of nachas.

Shana Tova U’Metuka! 💜

Community support makes our mission possible. 💜

A big thank you to the team at Store #53 for showing up for Friendship Circle in so many ways!

From volunteering their time and supporting Walk4Friendship to donating fresh fruit for Walk day AND helping hand it out, their team was right there alongside us.

We’re so grateful for community partners who don’t just support the mission, but roll up their sleeves and get involved.

Thank you for being part of our circle!

Volunteer spotlight time!

Today we are celebrating Liliana Hernandez Madrid! This is Liliana's first year volunteering at Friendship Circle, and she says it has been one of the best experiences of her life.

"I’ve loved spending time with so many amazing kids and getting to know each of their unique personalities. I’m incredibly grateful that I got to spend my summer with these wonderful kids!!"

She’s got places to be! 🐹💼

Meet Dolly, the newest (and possibly tiniest) member of the Elkus Village team!

Dolly will be joining our Lessons for Life programs, where participants, volunteers and kids can help care for her while learning more about animals along the way.

We love the go-getter attitude. We love the work ethic. We love Dolly.

Welcome to Elkus Village!

We asked one question and got so many reasons.

Walk4Friendship supports Friendship Circle’s year-round programs and helps us keep building a world where everyone belongs.

We’re almost to our $1.25 million goal, and there’s still time to help us reach it!

So now we’re asking you: What would make you walk with us?

A day in the life of an artist, Walk4Friendship edition! 💜

Megan woke up ready for Walk day: breakfast, coffee, the perfect bracelets from her own collection and, of course, Taylor Swift as her official Walk soundtrack. ✨

Then it was off to Walk4Friendship, where Megan walked for herself, for her fellow artists and friends with special needs, and for a community where everyone belongs.

We loved getting to experience Walk day through Megan’s eyes. 💜

Thanks for taking us along, Megan!

We have one more tiny favor left to ask! 💜

Help us collect the Walk4Friendship yard signs! If you have one in your yard or see one in your community - please take it down and return the metal stake to Friendship Circle’s Meer Center at your convenience. We’re open Monday–Friday, 9 AM–5 PM!

You’re welcome to keep the sign for your memories but we are also happy to collect them.

Thank you friends!

There’s still time to support! 💜

Rain and all, Walk4Friendship showed up yesterday. The energy is still here, and we're closing in on our $1.25 million goal. With your help, we can get there.

Every gift helps Friendship Circle continue creating opportunities for individuals with special needs to play, learn, work, create friendships, and thrive all year long.

Thank you to WDIV Local 4 / ClickOnDetroit for helping us share what this day and this community is all about.

Help us cross the finish line. 💜 www.walk4friendship.com

Today, as we celebrated 10 years of the Farber Center, Jeff Farber pledged an extraordinary $100,000 gift to Friendship Circle in honor of his parents, Bill and Audrey Farber.

This incredible gift brings us even closer to our $1.25 million Walk4Friendship goal, but we're not there yet. With your help, we can close the gap and keep building the next chapter of friendship together.

For a decade, the Farber Center has been home to Soul Cafe and Soul Studio, creating opportunities for adults with special needs to work, create, earn an income, build friendships and share their talents with our community.

What the Farber legacy helped build ten years ago continues to grow every single day.

Jeff and the Farber family, thank you for carrying that legacy forward and helping make sure it continues for generations to come. 💜

Help us reach $1.25 million, follow the link www.walk4friendship.com
