Hi everyone! My name is Rachel Tate-Sevenish, and I'm reaching out to ask for your support for the incredible work being done at Pathways Academy. I currently serve as Secretary of the Board of Directors, and, more importantly, I am the proud mother of one of its students.

My son, Bryson, is 14 years old and just completed his very first school year at Pathways Academy after spending the previous 11 years in ABA therapy. Watching him learn, grow, and thrive in an environment designed to meet his unique needs has been nothing short of life-changing for our family.

Today, Pathways Academy is facing significant financial challenges that threaten its ability to keep tuition manageable for all students. Most of the students in attendance are on a scholarship provided by Pathways based on income. The tuition rate for Pathways in 2025 were the lowest in the area. As a nonprofit academy dedicated to educating and empowering children with autism, Pathways provides individualized instruction, a supportive learning environment, and opportunities for students to reach their fullest potential. Losing this school would have a devastating impact on the children and families who rely on it every day.

Your generous donation will help keep our doors open by supporting essential operating expenses, educational resources, specialized programs, and the dedicated staff who make this mission possible. Every dollar brings us one step closer to ensuring that children like Bryson continue to have a place where they can learn, grow, and succeed.

Please consider making a donation and sharing this fundraiser with your family, friends, and community. Together, we can help keep Pathways Academy open and continue creating brighter futures for children with autism. Thank you for your kindness, generosity, and belief in our mission.
