At SEASPAR, the financial support we receive through donations and sponsorship enables us to expand programming, enhance services, increase participation, improve transportation opportunities for participants, offer fee assistance for participants in need, and much more.
Gifts to SEASPAR make it possible for us to continue helping our participants discover their abilities, achieve their potential, and realize their dreams!
SEASPAR is a 501(c)3 nonprofit with a 2023 Platinum Seal of Transparency from Candid (previously Guidestar).
