Our Mission: Create Opportunities for People with Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities and their Families to Participate Fully in the Community

25th Hour Fund

The 25th Hour Fund provides one-time support to help people and families served by DDRC. The goal of the 25th Hour Fund is to help people and families get back on their financial feet by supporting emergency, unmet or immediate needs.


Traditional funding does not provide all the services that people need and it cannot resolve many emergencies. For emergencies that can be resolved with a single financial boost, people may be able to turn to the 25th Hour Fund to help them get reestablished financially and support responsible spending.

Examples of emergency or unmet needs include:

  • Rent/housing expense assistance
  • Utility bills
  • Repairs like a broken window, furnace, car, etc.
  • Limited respite for emergency situations
  • Remediation from flood, bed bugs or other problems.

If you are seeking 25th Hour funding, please fill out and return the 25th Hour Request Word Document Form below.



All of the resources for the 25th Hour Fund come from donations and are administered by DDRC and the Developmental Disabilities Foundation.
