“The Arc Fond du Lac has been fortunate to receive generous support from the Fond du Lac Area Foundation for many years. The Foundation awarded us a grant to install durable safety mats beneath our playground equipment which have significantly enhanced the accessibility of our playground, allowing many of our participants to fully enjoy this space.”
