Advocacy is needed NOW from everyone who cares about Developmental Disabilities (DD) Services in Missouri. The proposed Fiscal Year 2027 State Budget includes cuts to DD Services, and we must make it clear to legislators that NO CUTS are acceptable.

Give your class or club the opportunity to grow into more compassionate, inclusive individuals. Our interactive program invites kids to explore the world of disabilities in a meaningful, hands-on way.

Through engaging activities, they’ll learn about “person-first” language, interact with adaptive equipment, and hear real stories from individuals with disabilities.

Let us help you empower the next generation to be more inclusive, kind, and aware. Call us today at 636-282-1414 to learn more!

Dear Friends,

As the clock winds down on another Annual Appeal Fund Drive at Pony Bird, we wanted to extend one final invitation to join us in our mission of enriching the lives of individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities if you haven’t done so already. Your support, whether big or small, makes an immeasurable difference, and we're grateful to have you in our corner as we look ahead to an exciting 2026.

The quickest and easiest way to lend a helping hand is by making an online donation using this link: https://form-renderer-app.donorperfect.io/give/the-pony-bird-inc/online-donation-form-copy

If you prefer the old-fashioned route, feel free to send your gift straight to our office at 1615 Vine School Road, Herculaneum, MO 63048. And don't forget - many employers offer matching gift programs, effectively doubling the impact of your contribution!

Of course, monetary gifts aren't the only way you can get involved. Did you know that Pony Bird is qualified to receive distributions from Donor Advised Funds? We also graciously accept donations of appreciated securities, which allow you to avoid capital gains taxes while supporting our life-changing work. And for our friends aged 70 1/2 and up, a Qualified Charitable Distribution (QCD) from your IRA could be the perfect way to fulfill your Required Minimum Distribution and make a real difference.

If you have any questions or need assistance with your donation, please don't hesitate to message us. On behalf of the entire Pony Bird family, thank you for your unwavering belief in our mission. Your generosity is the fuel that powers our efforts to create a more inclusive world where individuals of all abilities can live with dignity and independence.

Sara and Christine each recently celebrated their 1 year employment anniversary at Cracker Barrel Old Country Store in Herculaneum and just earned their 2nd star!

Apron stars represent levels of experience, skill, and responsibility. Sara works as a hostess, and Christine works as a retail associate. Pony Bird Employment Services provides long-term follow along support, and the employer feedback consistently includes compliments from their managers, co-workers, and customers.

Congratulations to Sara and Christine!
