Fynn – Renewal In Honor of Marty Goff
Fynn continues to thrive at Capable Kids and Rehab Dynamics! Marty not only is an avid music supporter all over town, but holds Acoustics for Autism near and dear to his heart. His familys foundation has consistently been supportive of our mission and Marty continues to be a great asset and fan!
Dakota – Renewal In Honor of Michelle And Rob Fairchild
Dakota has been testing the waters with various activities and making great strides thanks to the help of wonderful volunteers like Rob and Michelle. The Fairchilds have been at the forefront of planning our big Acoustics for Autism event as without the mass of tents and configurations they provide, we wouldnt be as successful as we are!
Griffin – In Honor of Tiffany Algarin
Griffin is new to the iAm family and using funding for sessions at Compass Rose Disability Advocates. There is a lot to be said about our Project iAm families especially the ones who give back the way Tiffany does. She volunteers her time and effort with her family and friends at all of our events. Having received benefits for her own child, she understands the importance of paying it forward to others in her situation. Having Tiffany a part of our organization has helped us flawlessly put on several events which earns money to distribute to children like Griffin!I
Ashley – Renewal In Honor of Pam Myers
Ashley was one of our very FIRST iAm kids back in 2009! Since that time she has grown and enjoys attending sessions at Love Beyond the Classroom! Pam was one of the very first supporters we ever had. Unfortunately, Toledo Hearing and Speech Center is no longer with us, but Pam gave us a chance when no one else would and helped make our first Acoustics for Autism the success that it was!
Noah – Renewal In Honor of The Denny Schaffer Show
Noah continues to thrive at Toledo Pediatric Speech and Hearing! The folks at the Denny Schaffer show have continued to support us in everything we do, so we can continue to raise money. We are so grateful for the constant publicity they give us and we couldnt do it without them!
Austin – In Honor of Tiffany Hornyak
Austin is using funding for guitar lessons! Tiffany Hornyak. Tiffany has been a volunteer for nearly a decade! Always willing to make things easier for us, Tiffany goes out of her way to help make our events successful. Because of the great teamwork from people like Tiffany, we can continue to fund children like Austin!
Owen – Renewal In Honor of Nwobtc
Owen is using his funding for the New Horizons Summer Program! Shaun and his crew are very integrated into the community and help in a various number of ways to make our area better than it is. Thanks to their generosity, we have been able to consistently put on one of the best events in the country and can make sure that the funds we raise go directly where it should, to children like Owen. Without this constant support, we would not be where we are today, having distributed over One Million Dollars to families with ASD in the Greater Toledo region!
Brandon – Renewal In Honor of Brandon Morris
Brandon is using funding toward Capable Kids Summer School this year! Brandon Morris has been an active volunteer behind the scenes and at events for the last several years and with his recent employment is our new sponsored Printer of choice. Brandon puts in countless hours on all computer and technical related Project iAm issues, which would normally cost the charity money that, instead, we can award to children like Brandon. Without Mr. Morris and his dedication to Project iAm, we would not be able to exist!
Annabelle – In Honor of The Josh Whitney
Annabelle is using funding toward safety improvements in the home. Josh is one of our most long standing volunteers. When Acoustics for Autism first started to grow, Josh not only offered musical talents to our event, but also his time, energy, and sound equipment to run our first expansion stage at Buster Browns. Without friends like Josh, we could not continue to save on the expenses we have so that money can be distributed to children like Annabelle.
Andrew – In Honor of The Lori Knannlein Archer
Andrew is using funding for sensory products as well as dental needs. Lori has been a volunteer for nearly a decade and has consistently taken on leadership roles in making our events successful. Without the help of people like Lori, our events would not run as beautifully as they do ensuring we can raise money for our iAm family, which now includes Andrew!
