The Power to Effect Change

Help Make a Difference
In 2006, Robert's IDEAL Giveaway Program was conceptualized by Robert Pio to help relieve poverty among his peers with disabilities.    Since then, the program has grown to include individuals experiencing homelessness and others.  We level the playing field, while providing an essential service. This empowering  program provides material benefit with dignity and an  opportunity for individuals to make choices.  Shoppers  are invited to "shop" for FREE and enjoy a "FREE" lunch too.  To date, Ideal Way has collected and distributed merchandise, and hot meals, valued at more than $750,000.  Also, Partnering schools benefit from mentorship opportunities provided by IDEAL Champions & Leadership Mentors.
