Leadership

Who is danny Blake?After a difficult birth experience, danny Blake was diagnosed with Cerebral Palsy and it was recommended that he immediately be placed in an institution. His parents staunchly refused and took their son home to join his family. At the age five in 1955, danny was named the Easterseals Child of year and was photographed with Governor Laushe of Ohio.

There was no such thing as “inclusion” in 1958 – anyone different was separate. However, it didn’t take long for danny’s educators to realize that his “differences” were only surface level. He graduated college near the top of his class with a 3.8 GPA. danny received a Master’s Degree in Social Service Administration from Arizona State University. In 1985, he became a board member of the Cerebral Palsy Foundation of Southern Arizona. He was instrumental in helping the agency obtain a half-million dollar grant from Angel Charities, giving the final speech on hope and perseverance. By 1993, Cerebral Palsy Foundation of Southern Arizona was serving more than just those with Cerebral Palsy and decided to change their name to The Blake Foundation, in honor of danny. In 2006 the agency became an Easterseals affiliate. danny remains on the Board of Directors and is a past Board President. danny spells his name with “d” in order to carry his experiences as a youth with him in his adult life. Thankfully, today the world is a different place for people with disabilities. danny’s life serves as a reminder of how far we have come, and the work left to do.

Legacy’s and bequests play an important part in funding programs that enable all people in Southern Arizona to live healthy, productive and independent lives. There are many ways you can ensure your philanthropic wishes become a reality. One of the simplest and most popular ways to empower people with disabilities is to leave a gift to Easterseals Blake Foundation in your will or trust. We are happy to talk with you about your philanthropic goals. Call Dina at 520.327.1529 ext 7061
