Leaves are changing and temperatures have dropped. It’s a great time for soup, cider… and a career with RHD, an organization that makes a positive impact on our communities! RHD has more than 135 programs in 13 states, offering essential services to a diverse community. Among the groups supported by RHD are people with intellectual and developmental disabilities, homeless individuals, women and children, and veterans. Our programs are seeking Direct Support Professionals for IMMEDIATE hire NATIONWIDE!

“It’s amazing to be able to give someone the opportunity to make the art that they have inside them.” IDEATE site specialist and musician/producer Josh Meakim is talking about his collaborations with Melvin Goldstein, an IDEATE participant and a South Philadelphia-based rapper with 25 years of musical experience. Melvin and Josh have been working together for four years.

RHD North Carolina’s Bridge Housing program in Cumberland County recently received a commendation from local government and garnered attention from area TV news. “There's going to be a good opportunity for us to acquire more properties, hire more staff, and offer services to a larger volume of people down there.”

We want to say thank you to everyone who attended and helped make our Main Line Wine Gala 2022 an incredible event! From a delicious, masterfully prepared three-course meal, highlighting signature favorites from The Joy of Cooking, to eye catching artwork to bid on and our amazing auctioneer, Harris Gubin, it was truly a night to remember. This night wouldn’t have been so successful without all of you, our donors and sponsors. We’d like to extend a special thanks to Rombauer Vineyards for being our featured wine for this year’s Gala, along with our honorary chair, President & CEO of Rombauer Vineyards, Bob Knebel.

Thanks to all of you, we raised over $110,000 for RHD programs. These funds would not have been possible without your support and willingness to give back to RHD. Thank you again for being a part of our 2022 Main Line Wine Gala. We can’t wait to see you all next year for the 10th Anniversary!
