About Bello Machre
Heart, Home, Hope
It all starts with our name. Bello Machre means “home of my heart” in Gaelic. And that translates to who we are and what we do. We aim to make a difference in the lives of people with developmental disabilities, providing a source of loving care, stability, and strength for them and their families.
Our name is pronounced: Bĕllō Mah-cree and our organization was founded in 1972.
