Officials from the Circus Saints and Sinners and major sponsors presented a ceremonial check of $20,000 to the Easterseals Rehabilitation Center in Wheeling recently.
The donation was generated from the club’s annual $5,000 Reverse Raffle presented by McKinley Carter Wealth Services, McKinley Architecture and Engineering, and Omni Strategic Technologies.
Easterseals President and CEO Eric Filberto said the funds are designated to help the center continue to provide rehabilitative medical care and pediatric therapy to children with disabilities and special needs throughout the Ohio Valley, including early intervention and child development services, as well as outpatient pediatric speech therapy, occupational therapy and physical therapy.
“We are deeply grateful to the Circus Saints and Sinners for their incredible generosity,” Filberto said. “This $20,000 donation will make a direct and lasting impact on the lives of children in the Ohio Valley, providing them with access to life-changing services they might not otherwise receive. Easterseals is truly fortunate to have community partners who share our commitment to making a difference.”
