Plucky Ostrich
Showing determined courage in the face of adversity.
The Plucky Ostrich is an opportunity for adults with special needs to serve Extra Special Shaved Ice to the DC area. The Plucky Ostrich was started on July 4th, 2021 as a pop-up event at Waterfront Church DC. On Thursday nights Waterfront Church hosts Capernaum for students with special needs in Junior High and High School to meet, make friends, and know God.
As students began to graduate we needed a space that was their own. Where they could grow independently, be included in the community, and develop skills that would not only lead to employment but to independence. The Plucky Ostrich celebrates, encourages, and advocates for people with disabilities.
