The annual Festival of Trees is coming soon. Due to COVID-19 we will be holding our auction online this year. Currently we are reaching out to community members who would be interested in helping create trees, wreaths and centerpieces.
Proceeds from the Festival of Trees will benefit the Pathway Partners. Pathway Partners provides financial assistance for unfunded needs, such as clothing, medical expenses and furniture, to individuals served by Pathway.

Our primary philosophy of Pathway Services Unlimited is to provide and stimulate the development of quality opportunities for persons with developmental disabilities and other physical and mental challenges. Input from families, guardians and stakeholders is the most valuable resource we have to continue to develop quality programs.
