Thank you St. Ann’s for serving such great meals to us each week. The Program today was a talk from Tom DeRoller, Executive Director of CDS Wolf Foundation, a local not-for- profit based in Webster. CDS Wolf is “Driven to help make a lasting impact on the lives of individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities, veterans, and seniors, the CDS Wolf Foundation supports critically needed, yet unfunded opportunities for those in our community.” Mr. DeRoller spoke about many things the foundation covers but most recently they have expanded into services for veterans with disabilities offering affordable, safe, quality housing. He also talked about CDS’s employment opportunities for the intellectually and developmentally disabled included packaging spices which currently are sold to the US military!
