Great Local Organization Makes Dog Biscuits!

Beg-O-Bone



Welcome to SPARC - Where we celebrate the triumph of the human spirit!
 Founded in 1951, Sparc is a non-profit organization dedicated to enriching the lives of people with intellectual and developmental disabilities in the Springfield area. For over 60 years, we’ve been dedicated to helping individuals find work and outlets to build self-confidence and independence, and live up to their potential.


Our work center provides training opportunities to help both individuals and local businesses. Our programs provide work to improve ability to engage in productive work activities through a focus on cooperation, attendance, productive capacity, and task completion. Individuals also receive assistance and training in physical fitness, computer skills, work-place relationships, volunteerism, self-advocacy, personal care and other hobbies. Building these skills allows individuals to find and maintain a place in a work atmosphere, and provides assistance to local businesses looking for help.

Contact Sparc today to learn more about our programs, who we help, and how you can give to our organization!




Beg-O-Bone makes delicious homemade dog treats that are sure to please your pooch! Take some home for your furry friend, or put them out at your local business to treat the community canines.
The newest of Sparc’s micro-businesses, Beg-O-Bone, produces fresh dog biscuits for retail sales, providing work training for individuals with disabilities. Our bakery is set up in our Work Center facility located at 2929 Stanton Avenue, Springfield, Il. Individuals supported by Sparc then measure, mix, roll, cut and bake the biscuits, making approximately 1500 great, bone-shaped dog biscuits for your pup to enjoy. Individuals are also responsible for quality control and packaging.
Beg-O-Bone dog biscuits are perfect for banks, dry cleaners, drive-thru's, mail carriers, police officers, or utility workers such as telephone repairmen and meter readers to keep a little treat handy.

Beg-O-Bone’s biscuits are made from all natural ingredients: white flour, whole wheat flour, dark caro syrup, molasses, garlic powder and silicone dioxide.
