We Love EFGC
Learn About a Few of Our Participants
Ryan
Ryan has been part of the EFGC family since our doors first opened in 2011! He enjoys bowling, art, music, and spending time with his many friends at EFGC. One of his favorite events is our annual Exceptional Arts fundraiser, where he loves being part of the excitement of the live auction and enthusiastically announcing “SOLD!!!!” when an artwork finds its new home. Outside of EFGC, Ryan works as a host at a local seafood restaurant. One of his favorite EFGC memories is recording a radio commercial that aired during local high school broadcasts!
Brandon

With his outgoing personality, he proudly introduces himself as an EFGC Participant and loves being involved in our community. Brandon enjoys a variety of activities, including singing with Singers Exceptionale, participating in our Theater Club and cooking classes, and competing alongside his teammates on our Special Olympics teams.
Nora
Nora first joined the EFGC family through our Youth Summer Camp Program and continued her journey with us after graduating high school by joining our Adult Day Program. She loves spending time with her friends and participating in the many activities EFGC has to offer. One of Nora’s favorite experiences has been being part of our Theater Club, especially performing in the 2026 production of “Camelot: Knights of the Square Table!”

It’s hard to find an EFGC activity that Zach doesn’t enjoy, but sports and competitive games are definitely his favorite! From playing Pickleball to participating on our EFGC Special Olympics basketball team, Zach loves staying active and being part of the action.
