<div>Connections Education Center is a nonprofit, Title 1 school that serves students with autism in Palm Beach County, Florida. Their curriculum includes adaptive swim lessons because drowning is the <strong>No. 1 cause of death for kids with autism</strong> and because these students live near lots of water. The school recently lost a student to drowning outside of school so this issue is even more urgent.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>They have a bus that takes students to/from the pool during school, but the bus is 15 years old and breaks down frequently. Last school year, they raised $114,800 to buy a replacement bus. But when they went to order the bus, inflation had driven the price up due to the increasing cost of steel and other raw materials.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>We're trying to raise $19,911 so they can finish buying this bus by December 2022.</strong> With a replacement bus, they can continue teaching students to swim and take them into the community to work on socialization and independent-living skills. They have qualified for a grant that helps pay for the aquatic program but they have to be able to transport the kids to the pool.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Please help us fund this bus! </strong>Any amount helps.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>You can learn more about the school at their website: <a href="https://connectedpb.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"><a href="https://connectedpb.com" target="_blank" class="" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">https://connectedpb.com</a></a>. You'll see that more than 80% of the students live below the poverty line, giving us an opportunity to help some of the most underserved kids in this area. <strong>Thank you for making a difference in the lives of students with autism!</strong>
