JF&CS Field Day Thanks to Commonwealth Financial Group

Commonwealth Financial Group employees and CHAI Works participants partnered up to take part in a number of outdoor games and activities that kept everyone moving and having fun. The competition was very friendly and the games were challenging – there were a few broken eggs on the ground after the egg races! Participants rotated through different activities, including an arts and crafts project that allowed people to take a break from running around. The group also enjoyed a picnic lunch and the day culminated with a game of kickball.

This was a terrific summertime celebration, all made possible by Commonwealth Financial Group who provided volunteers, food, and supplies. We are so appreciative of this partnership and we give kudos to Commonwealth Financial Group for making it a priority to support individuals with disabilities and for giving their employees time off on a Wednesday to play games!
