The Wall of Honorees was created to recognize and permanently commemorate individuals and organizations who are making significant contributions to their community through their time, actions, talents, and dedication. The honorees serve as a role model for compassion, and service, and strive to change the way the world views and defines disability. They illustrate pillars in the community who selflessly strived to make ESC better.
New honorees are recognized with the presentation of the Jake Jabs Community Impact Award at ESC’s annual Season of Lights Gala. The award was named in honor of American Furniture Warehouse founder, Jake Jabs.
