Call for MegaConference Sponsors!!

We invite you to join the organizations listed below in support of the 2010 Tennessee Disability MegaConference. For seven years, support and donations from people/organizations like yours have enabled the MegaConference to provide an invaluable resource for thousands of individuals with disabilities, their family members, support providers, and professionals. Previously, sponsorship from caring citizens and agencies made it possible for hundreds of people to travel, afford their accommodations, and attend the MegaConference. A minimum donation of $190 will make it possible for another person with a disability to attend the conference.

Links to our invitation letter, brochure and forms are below. We look forward to seeing you at the upcoming 2010 Tennessee Disability MegaConference. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to call Frank Meeuwis at The Arc of Tennessee, (800) 835-7077 ext. 23.
