My Project
We are excited to announce the creation of a garden that will be cultivated by students with autism, offering them a unique opportunity to engage in meaningful, hands-on learning and develop valuable life skills.
This garden will not only promote environmental awareness and healthy living but also empower students to build confidence and social connections.
To make this vision a reality, we are seeking donations to provide essential materials, tools, and resources to support this project. Your generous contribution will directly impact these students’ growth and development while enhancing our local community. We are deeply grateful for your support in fostering an inclusive, nurturing environment where every student has the chance to thrive.
