Fynnegan – In Honor of Marty Goff
Fynnegan is a new member of our iAm family and is using his scholarship for the New Horizons Summer Program. You can catch Marty at just about every music event in town, but his loyalty to Project iAm is unwavering. Martys family has been an avid sponsor of our organization for the last several years and without their support, much of our overhead would be spent on putting on our event instead of helping children!
Tyler – Renewal In Honor of Kyle White Lay
Tyler is using his funding toward drum lessons and tutoring lessons! Kyle has been a musician with us at Acoustics for Autism since day one. She has followed Tylers journey and is going to be so excited ed to see that he is following in the iAm way of thinking that music transforms us all. We are so lucky to have Kyle as a volunteer, musician, and friend of Project iAm.
Raekwon – In Honor of Local 500
Raekwon is getting much needed safety improvements at his home with his scholarship funding. Local 500 has been a recent donor and sponsor of Acoustics for Autism helping us with our overhead costs. Without such important and devoted sponsors, we would not be able to dedicate all of our proceeds to help children like Raekwon!
Gabriella – In Honor of Carol Dailey
Gabriella is using her therapy for ongoing treatment at Defying Odds Therapy. Carol has been a staple at Acoustics for Autism since day one! Her volunteer time has increased over the last ten years always helping with pre-event work and slinging that merchandise the day of! Without the consistency of volunteers like Carol, we would not have the great team of volunteers we do!
Cayden – In Honor of Dan Cummins
Cayden is using his funding for attendance in the Goldman Union Camp Institute Summer Program. You all know Dan from WTOL, but did you know he and his family have been avid supporters of Acoustics for Autism for many years? Aside from their constant volunteering, Dan has also made sure to help us with promotion at WTOL with interviews and commercials so that we can put all our earned funds to good use, like we did for Cayden!
Mason – In Honor of Anne Eckhardt
Mason is using his funding to go to the Capable Kids Summer Program. Anne joined us several years ago and has been one of our team leaders behind our bars at all of our events. Without her time and dedication to volunteering, we would not be able to help Mason like we have! Thank you Anne!
Jayden – Renewal In Honor of Small Box Music
Jayden is using his scholarship renewal for Saras Gardens summer program. As you all know Small Box Music has become an ever-faithful venue for Acoustics for Autism and has only grown in the last couple of years! We are so happy that John continues to be a part of this amazing event
Alex – In Honor of Synchronicity
Alex is a first-time recipient of a Project iAm scholarship and will be using his funds for Agility Angels. Synchronicity has been an active part of our media and branding for the last several years now. As you see all the time and effort that goes into making the Project iAm/Acoustics for Autism promo videos, remember that saving that money due to their generosity, is why we can fund scholarship’s for people like Alex!
Colson – In Honor of Bill Robison
Colson will be attending the New Horizons summer program this summer and is new to our iAm family. We are so sad to announce the passing of Great Lakes Sound founder, Bill Robison. It is his kindness and appreciation for charities like Project iAm that allows for us to fund scholarships for children like Colson. We are so proud to continue to honor his legacy and to keep Colson dancing to the sounds of Bills vision through Great Lakes Sound.
Ryker – Renewal In Honor of Hayley Posner
Ryker is using his renewal scholarship for New Horizons Academy. Hayley has been around for quite a few years helping Acoustics for Autism, but in 2022, she took on a much bigger role in helping with the organization and solicitation of donors. Without the dedication of people like Hayley, we could not do what we do!
