Matt and Cory Blue with Rachel Zink

by | Sep 27, 2025

Together with Rachel, we’re raising awareness for Inclusion Connections and BelongKC — because every student deserves the chance to shine.

Why Your Support Matters to Matt, Cory & Rachel

Matt Blue with Olathe Health KU and Cory Blue of Quinn Plastic Surgery & Aesthetics Center joined Top Model to make a difference in their community and help spread the word about BelongKC. After Cory’s memorable partnership with Rachel last year—which brought in the most donors to a campaign—she’s back again, this time with her husband Matt joining the team. They’re thrilled to support Rachel Zink, a longtime Inclusion Connections participant who shines in theatre and is also a Speed Stacking superstar with several national records. Rachel loves riding her bike and being a proud part of the PawsAbilities event team. She dreams of living with friends, working in fast food, and continuing to build a joyful and independent future.

Support Matt, Cory & Rachel’s campaign to help Inclusion Connections create even more opportunities for students like Rachel.

  • About Inclusion Connections

    Inclusion Connections empowers young adults with developmental disabilities to pursue their goals and thrive. From job training and employment at PawsAbilities, to theater, arts, and fitness programs, to the future BelongKC supportive living community, every program is designed to build independence and belonging.

    FashionAbility is our signature fundraiser that makes these life-changing opportunities possible and every team on the runway represents the dreams of our students.

  • The Impact of Your Gift

    Your donation doesn’t just support an event — it changes lives. A gift of $50 provides transportation so a student can get to work. With $100, you can cover an entire week of job coaching. A contribution of $250 opens the door for students to take part in arts and fitness programs that build confidence and friendships. And a generous gift of $500+ helps us move closer to building BelongKC, our future supportive living community.

    When you give to Matt, Cory & Rachel's campaign, you’re investing directly in Rachel’s dreams and creating opportunities for her and her friends at IC to thrive.

  • Your Generosity Deserves the Spotlight — Thank You!
