The Friendship Circle's unique approach creates friendships between teenage volunteers and children
with special needs. Together, lonely afternoons are filled with laughter and fun and our special friends are empowered and encouraged while they teach their teen friends a thing or two about life and its blessings.
Our teens learn from their new friends how to make the most of their own abilities and talents, and they in turn help their special friends build confidence and enjoy the benefits of friendship.
We ensure that our parents and siblings receive much-needed respite and support from their Friendship Circle family, and all those who assist us.
The priceless value of giving, the curative power of friendship, and the vital importance of integrating children with special needs into our communities are integral parts of the Friendship Circle's message.
We're proud to be the linking pin between volunteers, children, parents, community members, and supporters as we create a seamless circle of friendship that creates miracles each day.
By wearing Friendship Circle gear, you help advocate for our special friends, and for the need to build communities that allow each person to contribute in his or her own way. Your purchase helps us support our friendships and our 80+ chapters around the world.
