Jayden – In Honor of Small Box Music
Jayden is using funding for the Rehab Dynamic Summer Program. Small Box Music is a new addition to the Acoustics for Autism event and allowed us to add a quiet, 7th stage! This was a huge hit in 2019 and cant wait to continue working with Allison and John at Small Box!
Devin – Renewal In Honor of Dani Herrera
Devin is no stranger to the Project iAm Scholarship fund. He continues to use swimming as a great ASD activity which is highly recommended by his family and doctors! We all know and love Dani and her dedication to the arts and to our Project iAm Family. Without her constant assistance and kindness, Devin would not benefit the way he does! We are so happy to see you continue to excel, Devin!
Jaxson – Renewal In Honor of The Andersons
Jaxson is using his funding for The Hopebridge Center. The Andersons has been a staple in Northwest Ohio for as long as any of us can remember. They have always supported Project iAm and all of our events since we began. With their help, Jaxson is able to continue receiving support at Hopebridge!
Terren – In Honor of The Maumee Mason Lodge, Northern Light #40
Terren is using his scholarship money for various ASD sensory needs to help with his growth! Four years ago, the Maumee Mason Lodge became home to our kid’s area at Acoustics for Autism. This gave us a warm, safe, alcohol free place for children to do crafts, listen to music, and have all those baked goods! Thanks to the generosity of the Mason’s we have continued to grow and raise funds for children like Terren!
Jacob – In Honor of Jenny Reese And Kim Steinbock
Jacob is using his funds for treatment and therapy at Wood County Hospital. Over the last 5 years, youve definitely seen Kim and Jenny bring our kids area to life at Acoustics for Autism! These two amazing TPS teachers have given us a safe and fun area for all of the kids, both ASD and non, to enjoy all that this magical day brings. Without them, we would not be as successful as we are today!
Brandon – In Honor of Lisa Mcgowan
Brandon will be continuing to use his funds for the Wolf Creek YMCA swimming lessons and piano lessons. We were so excited when Brandon got to meet his scholarship namesake, Lisa at this years volunteer thank you party. Brandons mom has seen so much progress with this fine young man. We are so proud to have them in the iAm family!
Gabriel – In Honor of Tj Stratton
Gabriel will be using his funding for the Serenity Farm. TJ is long time member of the Maumee Elks and came to us in 2018 with an idea that would change our wonderful Acoustics for Autism! The Elk’s became our 6th stage in 2018 allowing us the the opportunity to expand our great event as well as raise more money for kid’s like Gabriel!
Pippa – In Honor of Anne Eckhardt
Pippa is using her funding for the Rehab Dynamics Summer Program. Anne has been a recent volunteer of Project iAm who has thrown herself into the dedication we need to continue to fulfill our mission. Without the time and energy that Anne puts into our events, children like Pippa would not be able to receive the great funding that she has!
Caden – In Honor of Chelsey Dearing
Caden will be using his funding for special ASD tools. Chelsey has been such a great energy for all of us at Project iAm and has always been one to step up and do whatever we need with our events. Thanks to volunteers like Chelsey, Caden can get the funding he needs to continue to prosper!
Sydney – Renewal In Honor of Ed Beczynski
Since beginning therapy at the Finegan Family Autism Center in Toledo, Sydney has made leaps and bounds. We are so grateful that she is able to continue with their program for another year (with their acceptance of her beyond age 6) and of course your contribution to help with the costs of her tuition.
