What’s New?

Summer Camp a huge success!

Our 10th anniversary year was great fun for everyone. More than 100 campers with ASD and 140 volunteers participated. Everyone had a great time biking in First Landing state park and kayaking in Back Bay. Cooking, swimming, and water balloon fights were also a big hit. Thanks to all the individuals and businesses that made this summer such a wonderful experience.

Create your own fundraiser

Salem Elementary students baked and sold cookies during Autism Awareness month and raised $560.

Courtney Paphites and Natalie Constantino asked for donations in lieu of gifts at their joint birthday. They raised $600! That's enough to send two children to camp.

Maggie Trainor and Mary Grace Dickerson raised $800 at their Birthday Bash, and volunteered at camp this year. Great job girls!

Maggie & Mary Grace

Local High School students have raised donations by hosting everything from "penny wars" to holday gift wrapping at the mall. Bake sales, car washes, and carnivals are tried and true; or be creative, but most of all have fun giving of yourself.
