APPLETON, WI – The third annual Tossing for Inclusion fundraiser presented by VPI and Green Bay Innovation Group takes place on Wednesday, Aug. 20, from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. at GameDay Sports Bar in Appleton. This unique cornhole tournament is more than just a game—it’s a celebration of community, connection, and inclusion.
Proceeds from the event directly support VPI’s wide range of programs, including workplace readiness, education, employment services, mental health services, early intervention programming, adult day services, and social enrichment opportunities—empowering individuals with disabilities to thrive in their communities.
Tossing for Inclusion brings together individuals of all abilities, including many who directly benefit from VPI’s programs, for an afternoon of fun and impact. The event fosters an environment where everyone—participants, families, local businesses, and community partners— come together as peers to support a shared mission.
“Tossing for Inclusion is fun, competitive, and inclusive, which is perfectly aligned with our mission to create inclusive opportunities that promote independence, connection, and meaningful engagement for individuals with disabilities across the Fox Valley,” said Tim Riebau, VPI, Inc. President and CEO.
