Since its inception in 2009, $3 million has been raised for The Friendship Circle (www.gotfriends.com), a non-profit organization that assists children with special needs and their families, as well as education foundations. The funds raised have been used to implement free programs at The Friendship Circle and has helped save teachers’ jobs, preserve critical academic programs, and enhance libraries and school technology.
