Third time’s a charm! We’re thrilled to team up with Sam again to support his dreams and the dreams of many Inclusion Connections students.
Why Your Support Matters to Paul, Shelby & Sam
Paul Hoffman, Chief Financial Officer at Worcester Investments and Hawaiian Bros, and Shelby Hoffman, Interior Designer at Nell Hill’s, are honored to be part of an organization that brings joy and opportunity to so many in the community. Shelby has been volunteering at FashionAbility since the very first gala, serving as backstage manager for the past five years, and Paul has supported the event for several years as well. This year marks their third time partnering with Sam Charpentier, who they first teamed up with during the first two galas. Sam has been part of Inclusion Connections for 13 years, loves making dog toys, and works at Sweet Tee’s and Dairy Queen. In his free time, he enjoys video games and dreams of becoming a police officer.
Support Paul, Shelby & Sam’s campaign to help Inclusion Connections create even more opportunities for students like Sam.

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 Paul, Shelby & Sam's campaign, you’re investing directly in Sam’s dreams and creating opportunities for him and his friends at IC to thrive.
