I have volunteered for a few years now for Potential. It began from my learning of their existence in our community. I have a grandson who has Asbergers (Autism). He is now out of state but I see what worked for him and I see the loving one on one attention these children receive at Potential. It is doing God's work!
I have served as Santa Claus for the community for many years and was excited to be able to do that at Potential for the kids. It has been great to see their response to my visits! I volunteer because I want to see Potential serve more children, the need is great!

I am ecstatic that I was able to volunteer at Potential Inc. this summer. Seeing firsthand what the staff does to help both children and adults with autism has been so inspiring. Being able to help out was a rewarding experience, and I can only imagine the how both the staff and clients feel after working together and achieving goals.
I would highly recommend others to volunteer at Potential Inc. The experience of volunteering there is priceless. I would also recommend to anyone seeking services. I believe that Potential Inc. could help anyone accomplish their goals.
In the short time that I have volunteered for Potential Inc., I have been so impressed by the great work that the staff does each and every day with individuals with autism and other developmental disabilities. Though I do administrative tasks in the main office, and have assisted with the company's annual Monte Carlo Night fundraiser, I get a sense that families are very pleased with the services they receive and know that the therapists are making a great impact on the individuals served, whether very young or up through adulthood.
I would encourage others to volunteer their time at Potential Inc.! They are very busy throughout the year with various events, and have a number of volunteer opportunities that will fit well with whatever skills or experience a person brings to the table.
