Update: Our experience at Disney World in Orlando was breathtaking. Jeremiah had a wonderful time and describes it as the best time of his life, and it is all because of the community effort that you all were apart of. Thank you so much from the bottom of my heart. ❤️

and all of the anonymous donators!

We received just over $1,000 in donations on this platform, which allowed us to pay for the Airbnb we stayed at in the Kissimmee area for five days. Thank you again to Alden Wike, who helped us cover the costs of the tickets to each park.

The thing that Jeremiah loves most in this world is cinema. Born with Asperger's syndrome in 1993 and made to struggle with the changing social views of autism, asperger's, etc. he used the artistic world of film to be his escape. He particularly loved Disney movies and the innocent joy he feels when watching them, a love which has continued to this day.

My mother and I have faced many challenges while trying to establish a safe and comfortable life for Jeremiah. Due to the current unpredictable nature of Social Security and the limited aid available for disabled individuals, securing things like a consistent food budget through food stamps and adequate housing is hard. He lives with my mom, and we both try to help as much as possible.

Jeremiah's dream for years and years has been to travel to Disney World in Orlando, Florida. We are not a financially prosperous family by any means, but we want to make this dream a reality!

The goal is six thousand dollars to cover Airbnb accommodations, plane tickets, food, Uber rides, and tickets to the park for five days in January 2026 (Jan. 4th-9th). During this trip I will be chaperoning my brother with my partner, Gabriel. The total price includes mine and Gabriel's park tickets, plane tickets, and our portion of the Airbnb, but not food or Uber rides. We will be covering that personally since we are just accompanying Jeremiah to achieve his dream. We want to be fully transparent about where your money is going, so there will be a full cost breakdown below!

We greatly appreciate any amount the community can give to help. No matter how much is raised, we will try our best to fill the gap and give him the best trip possible!

"I want to feel the magic around me at Disney World." - Jeremiah Early Swan

3 Park Tickets for 5 Days = $2,787.45 (subject to change as we try to work with Disney to get a disability discount)

Uber Rides = $115 (based on current rates)

Food ~ $500.00

Round Trip Flight from AVL to MCO = $466.37 x 3 = $1,399.11
