    ALLIANCE DATA PRESENTS A SPECIAL EVENING WITH FIVE FOR FIGHTING

    Dallas event benefits Plano-based for-cause organization, My Possibilities

     

    MARCH 19, 2019 – PLANO, TX – My Possibilities (MP) a North Texas for-cause organization invites you to attend A Special Evening with Five for Fighting, Sunday, April 7 at the Winspear Opera House.

     

    A Special Evening, a long-standing concert event headlined by major entertainers, benefits the LaunchAbility Career Services program at My Possibilities. Funds raised from the event help to provide innovative training and support to My Possibilities’ clients, adults with intellectual and/or developmental disabilities (IDD.) LaunchAbility Career Services at My Possibilities, formally LaunchAbility, has a rich history in Dallas as the number one supported employment organization. In Jan. 2018, My Possibilities and LaunchAbility merged to form a continuum of services, from educational to vocational to job placement, for adults with IDD.

For nearly 20 years, LaunchAbility and esteemed sponsors have worked together to bring a legendary performance to Dallas/Fort Worth to celebrate the many milestones made in the IDD community. This year, we are thrilled to share Five for Fighting as the entertainment. John Ondrasik of Five for Fighting shared in an interview with KLUV the reach his hit song “Superman” has with the Autism community.

     

    “We’re really looking forward to a live concert from Five for Fighting,” said My Possibilities Executive Director Michael Thomas. “John is an excellent singer/songwriter who connects with the population we serve and has ties to the Dallas/Fort Worth area. It’s a really great fit.”

     

    “Diversity in thought, skill and experience is vital to the development of a successful and progressive workforce,” said Alliance Data SVP and Chief of Staff, and My Possibilities Board Member Karen Wald.  “Alliance Data is proud to promote this concept through our employment of LaunchAbility clients, as well as hosting A Special Evening for the 18th consecutive year.”
