Hope's campaign for Crystal Coast Autism Center

I want to start by saying I have alot of family & friends on here. Some of you know my son who is on the spectrum or you know someone that is. Everyone knows I have been running the Crystal coast Autism center in Morehead city for about 8 years now. I know some of you have ask what we do there because you dont see cars there. Well let me tell you we have OT, Social skills groups, library, hopefully soon have music & movement back. I'm also working on trying to fine a therapist to rent one of our rooms.
These are a few things that has gone on here.

We have somewhere over 250 people or more that use this center. I dont think there is another OT in morehead city. The closes one is new bern & Jacksonville.

So what I'm getting to is we are a nonprofit that we  Rely on donations & Grant's. Since the covid19 hit it hurt us pretty bad. I was out of work for 8 weeks with know pay. The kids could not come to get therapy. Therapists had to go  Virtual. It was just a nightmare.

I have called channel 12 and I'm waiting for a call back again.  They did say they would come out and talk to me. Just dont know when.

So I'm asking you all if you could please help us raise money to keep the doors open on this center. We have a fundraiser coming up Aug. 22,2020. That will be a fish fry... You definitely dont want to miss it.

We only have maybe another month or so and that's with out be getting paid to keep the doors open. I'm not a quitter and I will fight to the end!

So please if you feel it in your heart to donate please we really appreciate it. If not just please share as much as possible.

Thank you all in advance!
