DALLAS, May 6, 2015 /3BL Media/ ? Alliance Data Systems Corporation (NYSE: ADS), a leading global provider of data-driven marketing and loyalty solutions, announced a $1 million gift to Plano-based non-profit My Possibilities in support of the development of a first-of-its-kind, comprehensive educational campus for adults with cognitive disabilities. My Possibilities is a pioneer in vocational instruction for adults with special needs who have aged out of the public school system. From the center?s 23,000 square-foot educational facility in Plano, Texas, My Possibilities provides social, vocational, and independent living skills training and a variety of enriching programs designed to stimulate the mental and creative abilities of the center?s students, called HIPsters (?Hugely Important People?).
Alliance Data has long supported causes that are focused on providing important services that increase independence for adults with disabilities. More than 2 million students with developmental disabilities leave the U.S. public school system with little or no options for further education. The new My Possibilities campus will help fill this educational void for the special needs adults that live in North Texas. The development of this multi-phased campus concept will include a variety of educational facilities which will enable My Possibilities to better serve the needs of adults with cognitive disabilities by providing a best-in-class, post-K through 12 education environment.
