Gabriel – Renewal In Honor of Tj Stratton
“I wanted to share with you Gabriels amazing achievement last week at the UT preschool:During play time, he came up to a peer who was playing with some magnets on the wall and asked him Be my friend? and then started playing nicely next to him. This is the first time ever that Gabriel tries to make a new friend!!! His teacher was able to capture this moment in picture (see below).” –Tatiana, Mother
Landon – In Honor of Kim Kohl
Landon has been using his renewal scholarship for his third year of a Summer Reading Program. We were saddened and shocked to lose Kim Kohl in 2017, our faithful and fun volunteer. We are proud to continue to honor her family with funding for Landon.
Drake – Renewal In Honor of Sid Marious
Our 2019 Holidays had a great surprise from our own Secret Angel! Tyler loved his pop up tent for ASD privacy while Drake enjoyed software to help with his ASD needs!
Alex – In Honor of Michael Glabicki
Alex has been an iAm kid for the last ten years. We are so happy that his mom Lauren is still volunteering at our events and making iAm the success it is today. Michael Glabicki, Rusted Root Frontman, is always one of the first musicians in line to come and put on a great show for our cause. Michael was the first national concert we ever had and continuously remains close to our cause.
Gabriel – In Honor of Tj Stratton
Gabriel is using his renewal scholarship for funding for all different kinds of sensory items. Since his therapy has been doing him wonders, Gabriel’s aide believes that having additional resources at home, will help him continue to progress!
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!
