Help Samuel Celebrate His Graduation with the Trip of a Lifetime!
We’re so proud to share that Samuel is graduating high school!
Samuel has worked incredibly hard to reach this milestone. He’s a consistent honor roll student and a gifted classical pianist whose talent moves everyone who hears him play. What many people don’t know is that Samuel is also autistic, which makes social interaction and big group settings especially challenging for him.
That’s why this moment is so special: Samuel has expressed a heartfelt desire to go on his senior trip. For a young man who has often found comfort in routine and solitude, this is a huge step forward—and a beautiful sign of his growth and courage.
We’re hoping to raise $2,400 to help Samuel join his classmates on this meaningful journey. This trip isn’t just a celebration—it’s an important opportunity for Samuel to build confidence, connect with peers, and create memories that will last a lifetime.
Any amount you can give will make a difference and is so deeply appreciated. Let’s help Samuel step into this next chapter with joy and support!
Thank you for being a part of his story.
