         Suzy Hutcheson, CEO of Helping People Succeed (HPS) and staff will be available to share information about the services that they provide.  Sandhill Cove has been a supporter of HPS over the years and has employed some of the agency's clients.  Proceeds will be used to support their new initiative, the early literacy program.

         HPS provides opportunities and choices that help children, families and adults improve their quality of life through education, counseling, training and employment. A direct outcome of their work is to help people with challenges to overcome, to become self-sufficient tax-paying citizens.

         "Helping People Succeed has been an invaluable community resource for more than 50 years. Our name has transitioned over the years to reflect our increased services but our mission remains the same – to help people of all ages with disabilities live productive lives. Our success is due to community partners like Sandhill Cove and the many other volunteers and supporters we have," Suzy commented.
