The excitement is in the air as the legendary Pointer Sisters will JUMP their way into Dallas for a benefit concert on Monday, March 8, 2010. Alliance Data will host the 9th annual fundraiser, “A Special Evening with The Pointer Sisters” to benefit Special Care & Career Services (SCCS), a local non-profit that strives to build independence for individuals with developmental disabilities. Headlining this year’s concert at the brand-new Winspear Opera House, Grammy-award winning R&B legend The Pointer Sisters will perform pop classics from their repertoire that includes Jump (For My Love), I’m So Excited, and Neutron Dance, among others.
Over the past eight years A Special Evening has raised more than $1.5 million and allowed us to continually expand our programs. Our programs are setting new growth records every year and we continue to gain state and national recognition for our innovative programming and training. The proceeds from A Special Evening directly benefit Special Care & Career Service’s Supported Employment Services (SES) and Early Childhood Intervention (ECI) programs. SES helps capable people with cognitive disabilities (such as Down syndrome, Cerebral palsy, Autism, and others) train for, find and keep good jobs. Our ECI program provides teams of specialists to work with babies and toddlers with developmental disabilities and delays to give them a greater chance for success in school.
