Members Benefits

We are an on-campus organization that promotes friendship between Bentley Students and those with intellectual and/or developmental disabilities in the Waltham area. Typically, we host monthly in person "pizza party"-style events where we catch up with friends and play games. Not only is this a great opportunity to meet Waltham community members, but get to know fellow Bentley students. This semester we will be hosting virtual events such as trivia nights and other social events with our buddies.
