A Side by Side World
Week in, week out, we’re witnessing the life-changing impact of people of all abilities going from strangers to friends.
This kind of beloved community is “what the world could and should be.” Imagine such a world! SBS is ready to grow and spread the love in all sorts of ways in the Spokane area, but we need your help!

How You Can Help Us Grow
Imagine a tree…
Depth.
We’re nourishing our root system by going deeper with the people and programs we have right now.
How you can help: give a small operating gift, or even better, become a Steadfast (monthly) Donor at any level, in order to cover costs for one of our 100+ participants and volunteers.
Growth.
Like a healthy trunk grows strong branches, our clear central purpose - people of all abilities experiencing life together - leads to strong programs in many directions. We want to grow more of these branches.
How you can help: make a gift toward programming; come get involved in a program!
Longevity.
A thriving tree is found in the right place with the right conditions. So too with us. Our long-term plan includes a sustainable budget, healthy reserves, and savings to find a permanent home.
How you can help: Give an impact gift to fortify SBS’s future: a large cash donation, stock, or one of many ways to make a planned gift.
Take Action
Whether it’s through financial support or being active in a SBS group, we want you to be part of this special community. Don’t wait - act now!
