"Step Up For The Arc — 2010 "
Arc Walk of Monmouth
The Arc Walk of Monmouth's "Step Up For The Arc — 2010 "
Once again, the 17th Masonic District will be supporting the Arc of Monmouth in its annual Arc Walk. Last year’s walk was a complete success, and this year’s walk promises to be even better. As a District, we have the opportunity to support those less fortunate than ourselves by supporting the Arc of Monmouth in its annual Arc Walk.
As a Lodge, you have an opportunity to make the 17th Masonic District successful in completing this task. The Arc Walk is a unique opportunity to demonstrate to the general public that Masons work together to support our communities, and more importantly, to help those who are in need.
We are requesting that all Lodges participate in this noble effort. We are also requesting that each Lodge donate $50.00 and that at least two (2) brothers from each Lodge actively participate.
A packet will be distributed at February's District Meeting and will contain a flyer with the date and location for the Arc Walk, a list of supplies requested by each Lodge and a sign up sheet for those who wish to participate. When brochures and posters become available from the Arc of Monmouth, they will be promptly distributed to each Lodge.

About The Arc of Monmouth
"The Arc of Monmouth is a non-profit organization in Monmouth County, New Jersey providing services and support for individuals who have intellectual and developmental disabilities and for their families. The Arc of Monmouth is guided by a volunteer board of directors, and is affiliated with The Arc of New Jersey and The Arc of the United States."
"Currently, The Arc of Monmouth serves over 1700 individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities in 25 locations throughout Monmouth County. The Arc provides employment, vocational, and educational services, adult training, community living programs, health care, social services and an abundance of enriching recreational activities."
"These programs and supports are designed to assist individuals with intellectual disabilities with living, learning, working and playing as integrated members of the community. Thanks to the training they receive at The Arc of Monmouth, many individuals are now working in the community, paying taxes and feeling a new sense of accomplishment and pride. Others reside in apartments or group homes with assistance from The Arc and hundreds participate each year in recreational activities. We are committed to continuing to assist persons with developmental disabilities to thrive within their homes, schools, workplaces and neighborhoods... within their lives."
