Mission

Sponsorship Opportunities

This Giving Tuesday we are asking for donations for our programs to support under-served families impacted by autism.  We provide social programs to encourage natural socializing, free from judgment from people who do not understand autism, and holiday events so families can enjoy themselves like any other families.

By visiting the link you can make a donation on our giving grid. We appreciate any amount to ensure that we can provide low to no cost events for our families.


 

The mission of the Freddie Ford Family Foundation is to support under-served families impacted by autism and to raise awareness and acceptance of autism.

AUTISM
In 2023 the CDC determined that 1 in 36 children will be diagnosed with autism. It is more commonly found in boys than girls. People diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) often have difficulty with social, emotional, and communication skills. They might repeat certain behaviors, have rigid routines, and might not want change in their daily activities. Many people with ASD also have different ways of learning, paying attention, or reacting to things. Signs of ASD begin during early childhood and typically last throughout a person’s life. There is no cure for autism and the cause is still yet unknown.
