(July 2024, Spring, TX) The month of August begins with National Girlfriend’s Day and sparkle events is hosting a Garden Party Brunch complete with Derby-style hats. The event is set to raise awareness for TEAM Abilities, an agency that serves adults with special needs through Day Habilitation and Community Living care.
“We are going to have a lot of fun along with a sumptuous brunch,” said Rachel Jelks, Founder & CEO of TEAM Abilities. “We will have cash giveaways for the biggest Derby-style hat, People’s Choice and more.”
The Garden Party event will be an eloquent way to raise funds and awareness for the special needs community and how TEAM Abilities is serving adults who have nowhere else to turn. There is also space for those who wish to be vendor at the event.
“Many of our Team Members, which is what we call our residents, are wards of the state. We are their everything. I often think, if not for us, where would they be?” said Jelks.
The event will take place at the new and spacious Team Abilities’ day habilitation building located at 611 Westridge Drive in Spring which sits under a canopy of trees. There attendees can pull from the “Wishing Magnolia” for items like notebooks, markers, backbacks, and such in efforts to provide items for Team Members who reside in TEAM Abilities 19 Community Living homes.
TEAM is an acronym for Together Everyone Achieves More which goes along with the philosophy of the agency stating TEAM Abilities is not a holding place for those with special needs, but a place for them to reside and thrive in life. TEAM Abilities also has a Supported Employment program so that Team Members can secure jobs, feeling both independent and productive.
“We hope everyone will turn out for this inaugural event that promises to be so much fun and so rewarding,” said Jelks.
The Garden Party Brunch event will be held Saturday, August 3, 11:30am-2:30pm at 611 Westridge Drive in Spring. For more information on becoming a vendor or to reserve a $35 ticket, call or text Donna at 832-790-2879 or go to www.MyTeamAbilities.com.
