Hello team JP supporters, i have been dedicating my time to help raise awareness for autism. My youngest nephew Jacob has ASD (Autism Spectrum Disorder). It wasn’t a easy thing for my family to hear or deal with at that moment. I still remember when my sister told me he had ASD, I didn’t care, I told her “he just has a extra spunk in his personality.”

I love him dearly, and this organization means so much to me because they helped a program that my little man attended and i couldn’t be anymore prouder to say that Autism Speaks helped educate my nephew and show him that the spectrum isn’t going to make him, he is going to make it.

There are many children and families who need our support and help. Some families cannot afford the programs out there, so this organization i work with helps those in need with those programs. So I go out and raised money to help those in need.
