American School for the Deaf hosts ?Green? car wash for Mosaic - News - West Hartford News
A long-time West Hartford resident will see his dream become a reality next month with a local car wash held with the help of students from the Community Service Club at Hall High School. A few years ago Joe began a small neighborhood car wash to raise funds for Mosaic's Wishes and Dreams Fund and hopes that through expanding his dream others will be able to fulfill their dreams as well. The car wash will take place on Saturday June 4, from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. at the American School for the Deaf at 139 North Main Street, West Hartford. A rain date is scheduled for Sunday June 5.
Mosaic is a non-profit organization which provides a life of possibilities for people with intellectual disabilities. Joe is a friendly, gentle, caring man with an intellectual disability who lives in a Mosaic residential group home near West Hartford's Blue Back Square. Expanding past the boundaries of his neighborhood, Joe is looking forward to including the greater community in his car wash and wants to help raise awareness about people with disabilities.
Through realizing his dream, Joe hopes to help others fulfill their dreams as well. All the proceeds raised will be donated to the Mosaic Wishes and Dreams Fund, a special fund that aids people in service to have their own special moments in life like; take vacations, attend summer camp, visit family, cheer on their favorite sports team, listen and enjoy their favorite musical performer, and much more. The fund additionally supports the basic needs of individuals, such as; hearing aids, dental visits, clothes and household needs.
The Community Service Club students at Hall High School are partnering to plan the car wash, solicit donations, and promote the event in their neighborhoods. All 25 members of the Community Service Club along with Mosaic staff, and Joe will be on site to help wash cars and to advocate for people with disabilities. Students in the club have chosen Joe's Car Wash as their project for the year and have been working alongside Joe and Mosaic to help make the car wash a success as well as a positive contribution to their community.
Both Mosaic and Hall High School students felt that it was important to make the event a “Green” Car Wash and an organic, environmentally safe product will be used to wash vehicles. The event will also feature a snack station as well as raffle and door prizes. Free will donations will be accepted.
