Alex –
Thank you Project iAM!
Chloe – In Honor of Mike Toth
Dear Project Iam,I am writing to say thank you for the scholarship that your organization was kind and generous enough to give to me. Now I can continue to receive speech services at home and work on executive functioning skills with Ms. Katie from Exceeding Expectations. You have no idea how much I appreciate it, and how much it means to my family and I. Words will never be enough to do it justice. Project Iam means so much to me. I love your mission and what you do. Receiving this scholarship was a huge relief for me. It made me so happy because I still get to learn and grow through therapy! I love to do those things! I live life believing progress is always possible and thanks to you I can continue to learn new skills. Executive functioning skills are very hard for me. I have struggled with this challenge for years. My family and I have tried multiple things over the years and nothing worked for long until I started therapy at Exceeding Expectations. My bedroom is totally neat and transformed now and I have you to thank! I am learning so many important skills. Thanks for helping me be the best me I can be. Thank you for positively impacting my family and so many others! You are truly an amazing asset to our community. You make a difference.My best,Chloe Rothschild

Brennan – In Honor of Roberta Koralewski
Brennan is using his resources from Project iAm for services at the Wood County Rehab Program. Roberta is a staple in Project iAm family. She is the first person to offer her time and effort to help make Acoustics for Autism, and every event, a special and efficient one. Robertas kind heart and attitude allows us to provide events that raise funding for Children like Brennan.
Ryan – In Honor of Chad Turner
Ryan is attending the Rehab Dynamics Summer Program in 2018. Chad has been actively involved in Project iAm for the last several years, helping us organize, promote and focus on the mission of the charity. Without Chad, we would not be able to direct our funding to children like Ryan!
Parker – In Honor of Chuck Rippenhoff
Parker had his scholarship renewed for his progression and treatment at Promedicas Early Autism Program. As you know, our organization would not be possible without the love and support of the musicians who encompass it. As we started to branch out and expand Acoustics for Autism, we thought if was only fitting for our dear friend Chuck and his pop rock band The Wow Factor to continue to play our event in our bigger areas to draw more people. Without people like Chuck and his band, we would not be able to raise the money we do for children like Parker!
Connor – In Honor of The Mettler Family
Connor continues to excel in his treatment at Promedicas early Autism Program with the help of the Project iAm Scholarship Fund. The Mettler family has continuously been one of the biggest supporters of our endeavor. They have volunteered their time and efforts to every event of which we have ever been involved and have loved watching Connors success!
