Festival of Inclusion - Saturday, March 1

The Golisano Foundation is bringing together community organizations in its fourth annual Festival of Inclusion. The Festival of Inclusion is a day open to the entire community and filled with fun, acceptance, and respect for everyone in the family! Each year the Golisano Foundation, Special Olympics, NY and the local Best Buddies Chapter works to unite the WNY community for an afternoon of engaging games and interactive experiences

Activities include sports and fitness, adaptive equipment demonstrations, a sensory friendly room, virtual reality experiences, therapeutic animals and food trucks. They will also have over 85 organizations from the community, with some hosting interactive activities and demonstrations. Stop by the Mary Cariola table for interactive fun and information about our work.

“The Golisano Foundation recognizes that the world is a better place when everyone is engaged and a part of it,” said Executive Director Erica Dayton. “Holding events like the Festival of Inclusion provides a fun, safe, and informative environment for people with and without disabilities to interact with each other through engaging activities while learning more about what our community has to offer to everyone.”

This free event will take place on March 1 from 11a.m. to 2p.m. at the Golisano Training Center at Nazareth University.
