Robert's Ideal Giveaway - Ideal Way, Catholic Central Highschool

In 2006, Robert's IDEAL Giveaway was conceptualized, by Robert Pio Hajjar, to help relieve poverty amongst his peers with disabilities.  At Giveaways, qualified individuals are invited to "shop" and enjoy lunch for “free”, and are given the opportunity to make choices. This empowering program provides material benefit with dignity to individuals with disabilities, people experiencing homelessness and those living in poverty.  Local schools who partner with Ideal Way benefit from mentorship opportunities provided by IDEAL Champions & Leadership Mentors. In November 2019, Ideal Way collaborated with Catholic Central High School (CCH) to implement Robert's IDEAL Giveaway. 100 volunteers distributed $75,000 worth to 500 individuals.  As a result of this collaboration, Ideal Way beneficially connected with persons having intellectual disabilities and experiencing homelessness and those in group homes/supported independent living.
