Good happens here — and in our community!
We’re excited to celebrate Stacy this month during National Disability Employment Awareness Month and the great work she’s doing at Beehive Quilt Shop! We love seeing her do work she genuinely enjoys, working with bright, colorful fabrics.
Her supervisor, Desiree Defore, shared how much they enjoy having Stacy as an employee. “We see such a spark in Stacy because she recognizes the importance of the work she does and how her efforts to fold fat quarters are displayed throughout our store and are also used in custom bundles for customers.” Desiree also shared how much Stacy has grown since beginning her employment nearly a year ago. “Everything I have her do, she picks up and helps and has learned so much since we’ve first started.”
A special thank-you to Beehive Quilt Shop for recognizing Stacy’s abilities and giving her the opportunity to be part of their team, and to Sunflower Employment Services for helping connect Stacy with a job that’s such a great fit.
Successful employment happens when a person’s strengths and interests meet the right opportunity — and community partners help make that connection possible.
