In 2019, The Arc of Lehigh and Northampton Counties established the Helen and Parke Speary Legacy Society to celebrate and thank the individuals and families who have made The Arc a part of their future plans and who share our mission to advocate, educate, and provide services and supports for people with intellectual and developmental disabilities and their families.

The late Helen and Parke Speary founded The Arc of Lehigh and Northampton Counties 56 years ago, and our planned giving society is named after them because they paved the way for our organization to make a real and lasting difference both today and far into the future.

Should you choose to include The Arc in your will, in other estate plans, or in connection with any other type of gift, we would be honored to know of your intentions and have you as a member of our Legacy Society.
