John,

Thank you for joining us in April for World Autism Month. Together, we’re making a bigger impact for children and adults on the spectrum. The response from friends like you has inspired us to share more stories of the individuals and families you’re supporting.

Because of your support, we're working to amplify the voices and needs of people on the spectrum and drive change for a brighter future for all. We want you to join us.

Vedant is a 13-year-old autistic boy. His mother, Tulika, tells how he’s changed her life.

"Vedant never ceases to amaze me with his resilience and his ability to push the boundaries," she says. "He has shown that he can when others said he could not. He overcomes his challenges every single day."

Inspired by her remarkable son, Tulika speaks out for Vedant and others with autism. "[Vedant] has given me a voice that I did not know I had," she says.

Today, I hope you will join Tulika and fellow supporters by making a generous gift to help provide life-changing resources to children and adults with autism.

Your generosity will help Vedant and kids like him create their own best futures.

"I want to see my son be independent," Tulika says. "I also want to see him have a meaningful job, a companion to spend his life with and the ability to make his own decisions."

Thank you for the interest you’ve shown for the autism community. I hope you’ll join us by making a generous gift. You’ll be helping enhance enhance lives today and accelerate solutions for tomorrow. Your gift is loud. It speaks volumes.
