More about The Toad culture, which is oriented around community, sustainability and good old fashioned fun — and a little background about the Search for Adventure program and the PepsiRefresh Project. Eleven years ago, Horny Toad partnered with Search Developmental Center, a non-profit life-skills training group that works with adults who have developmental disabilities. The partnership gave rise to Planet Access Company (PAC), which provides training and work opportunities to this important population. To date, millions of Toad items have been picked, packed and shipped with unmatched reliability and enthusiasm by the PAC work crew – cool huh?

Horny Toad’s next challenge was to answer the question, “What’s work without play?” The answer was Search for Adventure (SFA), an experiential travel program that uses proceeds from PAC and a grant from Horny Toad to send Search residents and members of the PAC work crew to have opportunities to see the world outside of the daily routine; not just survive but thrive, learn and experience.

These are experiences that you and I may take for granted but empower people with developmental disabilities to achieve their full potential and lead rich and rewarding lives. With enough votes, the Search for Adventure program will get the funding it needs to make a difference in the lives of developmentally disabled adults. With your vote you can help make that happen. Now that’s fun.  Find more toads @ www.hornytoad.com
