Autistic Children’s Activity Program

2012 Scholarship Fund Drive:  February 1st – May 31st
Help a family send their child with autism to
the ACAP summer program!!

All online donations made between February 1st and May 31st will be directly invested in the ACAP scholarship fund to help families send their child to the ACAP summer program.  Your tax-deductable gift of $25, $50* or even $100 – whatever you can manage – will be much appreciated right now.

                              *(Your gift of $50 will really make a difference!)

The tremendous emotional and financial
pressures families face when raising a child or children with Autism Spectrum Disorder can be overwhelming.  In addition to providing key education and
recreation services, the ACAP summer program provides much-needed respite to families.  The ACAP scholarship fund gives financial assistance to these families, enabling their children to attend summer camp and allowing ACAP to serve as many people with autism as possible.
Help us reach our goal of $10,000 and donate today!!
