 Bank of America’s “Local Hero Award”

New Heights Gus Egerer (photo courtesy of First Coast News) has been chosen for Bank of America’s “Local Hero Award”. He is a dedicated volunteer in our Adult Development Program.

His hobby is compassionately helping others. Gus encourages the individuals with disabilities we serve to become more active. He teaches them to stretch their muscles thus making them more physically able. Gus who is a “Black Belt” & instructs Karate for individuals with Cerebral Palsy, Autism Spina Bifida and other developmental disabilities. Because he has one arm, he is an inspiration , not only for the individuals we serve, but to the entire staff, as well! He teaches self defense so individuals will never be a target of abuse. We’re thankful for his dedication!
