Enjoying the Fall

Hello, Friends!

I'm counting down the sleeps until I leave for a much needed "break" back to the Autism Treatment Center of America.  A few days ago, I received an email from another New Frontiers participant in a group message.  He was reaching out to everyone so that we may have a head-start in getting to know each during for our one week course.

When I receive notes and messages from other Son-Rise parents, I am filled with hope and inspiration.  I'm not alone on this journey, and I'm not the only one who believes in my child the way that I do.  I do have many many questions - sometimes I just need some true quietness and stillness for the answer to present itself.

Thank you, friends, for all your well wishes and for your financial contributions that have made this training course so much closer.  I'm grateful, and I send best wishes to all of you!

Happy Autumn to you all!
Here are a few pictures we took recently at Long Sault Conservation.

Fund Raising Update for New Frontiers and Start-Up

Dear Friends and Family,

Thank you for your thoughts and time to read my posts about our fund raising!

I'd also like to extend our gratitude to our friends and family who have been able to generously donate to our cause.  To date, we have been gifted $450!  Thank you.  No amount is too small.  Every thing adds up.

Let me please remind you, that your thoughts and prayers mean a lot even if you aren't able to donate.  They are the vibrations that help lead us to our goal.

We are looking to cover New Frontiers ($2500), Start-Up ($2200) and Travel (est. $1000) - all USD
We are grateful for the funds that have already arrived:  $1700 (from Autism Treatment Center Scholarship), $350 (referral discount), $450 from loving friends and family since the start of this current Fund Raising campaign, and $355 from previous fund raising (a raffle at Nana Nancy's birthday party, two yard sales, optional donations for plants and my mom's delicious eggrolls).  There remains a balance of $2845, but there is still time!

Thank you all again for your involvement!  Blissful blessings for a brilliant day,
