💙 JESUIT IS BACK AT ASD! 💙

We are so excited to welcome Jesuit College Preparatory School of Dallas back to ASD for another year of service!

Jesuit students have been making a difference at ASD since the early 1990s, creating a legacy of service that has continued year after year and generation after generation. From helping around our properties to spending meaningful time supporting our programs and residents, their commitment has left a lasting impact on the ASD community.

We are eternally grateful for this incredible partnership and for every student who continues to show up ready to serve, learn, and make a difference. 💙🙌

Welcome back, Jesuit! Here’s to another amazing year of service at ASD – A Home for Life!

🌆✨ Ohhhh… Donna’s getting close now!

She started her journey among the homes and communities ASD serves. She kept moving through Dallas, representing the residents and families who benefit from the generosity behind Friends Helping Friends.

And now look where she is — Downtown Dallas!

The lights are brighter, the city is glowing, and Donna Dumae is getting closer to the celebration that has brought friends together for 30 incredible years.

This year, we’re once again asking our community to help ASD stock up on toiletries and personal-care essentials for the residents we serve.

Donna has just one more stop. 👀

Can you guess where she’s headed?
