Empowering Adults with Developmental Disabilities
Scully Learning Center Foundation provides enrichment activities, life skills training and community support for adults with development disabilities. We are raising funds to build a residential center for developmentally disabled adults who become homeless when their family or long-term caregiver is no longer available to care for them.
Pennies for Preserving Families
The U.S. Treasury has begun phasing out the penny, completing the end of its production, making it obsolete and useless in the US economy. As there are significant pennies still in circulation, we’d like to collect as many of them as possible, exchanging them for dollars.
We will have several collection spots at local businesses and community events like Carefree Farmers Market, Cave Creek Rodeo Days, and Cave Creek Bike Week.
Scully Greeting Cards
Creativity with a Cause
We are excited to share a special fundraiser that brings together creativity, community, and compassion. Participants recently teamed up with the Sonoran Arts League to design a beautiful collection of greeting cards—12 cards for just $30—with proceeds supporting our programs and mission.
Who We Are
Every person deserves a place to call home and a community that cares.
At Scully Learning Center, we believe every individual deserves a home filled with hope and belonging. Unfortunately, many adults with disabilities face the heartbreaking risk of homelessness as their caregivers age and housing options remain scarce.
Our mission is to empower adults with developmental disabilities by profiding safe housing, comprehensive life skills training, enrichment activities, and a supportive community. We are committed to fostering independence, dignity, and lifelong support, enabling individuals to lead stable, fulfilling lives and significantly reducing the risk of homelessness.
Over 50 adults with disabilities have been supported since 2010.
Preserving Families Home
“This will be more than just a residence – our community will empower adults with developmental disabilities to live with purpose, joy, and lifelong belonging.”

Today, we honor the life and legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and his powerful vision of equality, dignity, and community for all.
Dr. King had a dream, and so do we.
Our dream is to create an inclusive, supportive environment where adults with developmental disabilities are seen, valued, and empowered to learn, grow, express creativity, and live meaningful, fulfilling lives.

At Scully Learning Center, enrichment is about more than activities—it’s about opportunity, confidence, and connection. Our programs offer adults with disabilities engaging experiences that encourage creativity, independence, and personal growth through art classes, community outings, and hands-on learning.
Each activity is thoughtfully designed to celebrate individual strengths while building life skills and meaningful relationships. Through enrichment, our participants continue learning, exploring, and thriving, because everyone deserves opportunities to grow, express themselves, and feel connected to their community.

This past year marked an important milestone for Scully Learning Center. Through the generosity of our community, we raised more than $150,000 in support of a vision that is deeply personal, long overdue, and transformative for adults with developmental disabilities and their families.
These funds bring us closer to a bold goal: building the first of its kind group home model—designed to provide a smooth, dignified, and comfortable transition for physically and developmentally disabled adults and their siblings when they are no longer able to remain in their forever family home.
To our donors, volunteers, sponsors, and supporters—thank you. Every contribution this year moved us closer to turning vision into reality. Your belief in this mission helps build not just a home, but a future filled with security, belonging, and hope.
