2023 Pancake Breakfast

Sheltered workshops are places where adults with disabilities can work and learn new skills in a supportive environment. They provide a safe and structured space for people with disabilities to gain confidence and learn new skills. Sheltered workshops can also provide a sense of community and belonging for people with disabilities. They can be valuable places of learning, socialization, and pride for workers and perhaps respite for their caregivers.

Valley Sheltered Workshop is a private nonprofit that operates without fees to its participants. For over 50 years, it has collaborated with the Fox River Valley community to create meaningful and dignified work opportunities for its participants. Each participant earns a paycheck for everything they do with the workshop, as the workshop believes in cultivating a path towards independence at their own pace. The workshop provides opportunities both in the workshop and in the community with like-minded organizations and employers to enrich the lives of its participants no matter where they are on their journey.

Help us meet our goal by contributing to our annual fundraising event, the Pancake Breakfast, which helps us continue this mission.
