LAS VEGAS – Terry Fator, one of the world’s top entertainers and impressionists, has teamed with The Mirage Hotel & Casino to host a special fundraiser for Opportunity Village on the Las Vegas Strip on Wednesday, June 6.
Opportunity Village clients and guests will enjoy a pre-show visit with Fator to go along with drinks and light bites provided by The Mirage inside the property’s Parlor Lounge beginning at 5:30 p.m. A select group will also get to visit with Fator in his dressing room prior to the show for a meet ‘n greet and photo opportunity. This unique experience, donated by Terry Fator and The Mirage, will give guests the best seats in the house for the headliner’s show, which will start at 7:30 p.m. inside the Terry Fator Theatre located at 3400 S. Las Vegas Blvd.

He’s a star on and off the stage!”

About Opportunity Village
Mission: Opportunity Village is a not-for-profit organization that serves people within our community with significant intellectual disabilities, to improve their lives and the lives of their families.
Seven families who were determined to give their children with disabilities the best lives possible founded Opportunity Village in 1954. Now, more than 60 years later, Opportunity Village is one of the most recognized and respected organizations of its type in the United States.
Nevada’s largest employer of people with disabilities, Opportunity Village serves more than 2,000 individuals annually, providing vocational training, employment, habilitation and social recreation programs and services that make their lives more purposeful and interesting.
Opportunity Village citizens – individuals who were previously considered unemployable – work at Opportunity Village’s Employment Resource Centers and in jobs throughout the community, collectively earning wages amounting to more than $3.7 million in 2016. They are hard-working and diligent, proudly paying taxes and happily leading more fulfilling lives.
Primarily a self-funded organization, Opportunity Village generates the majority of its operational funding through its employment contracts and fundraising efforts such as the Magical Forest and Great Santa Run, saving Nevada taxpayers more than $37 million annually.
