Senior Citizens at Skills, Inc., Give Skowhegan Savings Patriotic
"Gift of Joy"
SKOWHEGAN, Maine - Senior citizens from Skills, Inc. have brought several patriotic
arrangements to adorn Skowhegan Savings' main office lobby
through the Fourth of July. Skills is a non-profit organization
in Maine that helps all people with intellectual disabilities
and other challenges to achieve their goals through employment,
residential and supportive services, and through educating
the public to eliminate barriers. The festive bouquets,
made from brightly colored and handmade paper flowers and
stars, are each called "A Gift of Joy."
