This week we have a guest post from the parents of a Madonna Shop Client.
The Madonna Philosophy
Our son Joe, has worked at Madonna Workshop for 28 years – a
long time – here is why:
To start with, for us it was an easy decision choosing the
Madonna Workshop as Joe graduated from Madonna School and we wanted the same
philosophy to carry over into his work situation.
When you enter Madonna Shop, the tone is immediately one of
warmth and respect and a real camaraderie mixed with a serious work
ethic. The caring and encouragement from the staff is apparent while
challenging them to be their best and develop a good self-image.
Plus the Madonna Shop focusses not only
work skills of their clients, but mind and body are developed as well via art classes, where
they learn to be creative, and through physical exercise from the use of
treadmills and exercise bikes with a physical therapist.
Fun, too, is
important – on Friday afternoon and work is done, they can earn time
playing games such as the Wii.
In our opinion, Madonna Shop truly educates the mind, body
and spirit – how lucky we are to have it and that Joe can be part of it.
