“Your gift doesn’t matter.” Maybe you have believed this lie. The truth is that we all have something valuable to add. Not only does your hard work bless the one you serve, but you experience greater connection and purpose in the process. Just ask TD and Shelley .

Cinderella and Prince Charming; Belle and the Beast; Elena; they all traveled from their castles to Milestone last Friday, bringing joy and celebrating life. Every year, we host a Fairy Tale Ball for HopeKids.
