Hello, Friends, Family, Go Fund Me community and supporters!

I hope this message finds you well. We are reaching out to you on behalf of our amazing grandson and great grandson, 5-year-old, River. River is a bright, loving child who happens to be on the autism spectrum. Unfortunately, River is non-verbal, and the wait lists for crucial services in Ontario, Canada, are quite lengthy.

The Cause:

We are embarking on a mission to raise $35,000 to provide River with immediate access to essential therapies, including speech therapy and Applied Behaviour Analysis (ABA therapy). The reality is that publicly funded supports come with extensive wait times, and every moment counts in River's development.

Why it Matters:

This cause is profoundly significant to us because early intervention is key in helping River thrive. With your support, we can ensure that River has the resources he needs while waiting for publicly funded services. Your contribution will make a meaningful impact on River's journey toward greater communication and social skills.

How the Funds Will Be Used:

The funds raised will be dedicated to providing River with the critical support of speech therapy and ABA therapy. These interventions are transformative, the monies will provide adequate funding for one year of these services and will play a crucial role in unlocking River's potential, making a lasting impact on his life.

The Goal:

Our goal is to raise $35,000, and with your support, we believe we can achieve this milestone. Every donation, no matter the size, brings us one step closer to providing River with the help he needs to navigate the world around him more effectively.

How You Can Help:

We are reaching out to you with a humble request for your support through a donation. Additionally, please consider sharing this campaign within your network to help us reach a wider audience. Your generosity and advocacy will make a significant difference in River's life.

Gratitude:

We are deeply grateful for any support you can provide. Thank you for being part of River's journey and for helping us make a positive impact on his life.

Closing:

If you are unable to contribute financially, your thoughts and good wishes are equally appreciated. Please consider sharing this campaign on your social media platforms to help us spread the word.

Thank you for your kindness and support.

Sincerely,

Nicole, Wendy, Danny, Frank and John
