Hello family and friends,
I am excited to be participating in Autism New Jersey's awareness event: The Do-A-Thon. The event will run until June 30, 2024. As you know, since JJ was diagnosed back in 2013, I have been volunteering to raise funds, advocate, and contribute to the inclusion of all individuals on the autism spectrum.
As you may know, Autism is a spectrum disorder which means all individuals with autism are unique from each other. They have different skills, abilities, challenges, and interests. This event is a celebration of what makes us all different.
It's why I have created this “A-Thon” based on my interests for early literacy and writing fueled by our imagination. As I prepare for “event day” I will update this page with our progress and challenges and will be looking to family and friends to stay motivated and focused. If you can make a donation if possible, or even to join me, even better! $5, $10 or just your creativity! Why not write about your hobbies or people that inspire you? You may also read excerpts from your favorite book, a quote, a poem, etc. I'd share it from April - June on my social media platforms to bring awareness about autism and the importance to learn about neurodivergent people.
About Autism New Jersey
Funds raised will go to Autism New Jersey, a statewide nonprofit that supports, advocates, and educates the autism community and the professionals who work with them. Your support will allow them to continue doing the important work they do to make difference in the lives of the 1 in 35 people with autism in New Jersey.
You can make a secure online donation today by clicking on the “Donate” button. You’ll receive a receipt of your tax-deductible donation via email.
Let’s work together to DO something to support our autism community!
