Brandon is using his funding for the UT PMO program. Lisa is always the first person to volunteer her time to Project iAm and bring a group of fun loving friends with her. No matter what the event or the task, her physical contributions made have given us the opportunity to be able to fund scholarships for children like Brandon. No matter how busy her schedule, she has been so willing to give up her time and energy to help us continue with our mission and help so many children in the area.

Dear Project iAm and Buster Browns,Thank you so much for renewing our scholarship for another year. Our daughter, Shelby, has been attending Promedicas Autism Early Learning Program since she was three years old and received her Autism Diagnosis. This program has been amazing for her! With the help of the Buster Brown scholarship, we were able to send her to the full day program and now she will be able to continue this program for another year.This past year, we have watched Shelby grow in so many ways. She has learned how to communicate her wants and needs by using pictures and one word requests and labels. She is learning colors, letters, and numbers, as well as identifying people she is familiar with. Seeing Shelby look at a picture of her brother, sister, her dad and myself and call us by our names has been amazing. One of the biggest highlights of this past school year has been that Shelby has become fully potty trained! I had no idea how I was going to teach this task to my child who was almost completely non-verbal, but with the support of the staff at the AELP, we were able to teach her successfully. These are only a few of the many things Shelby has been learning during her time at this program.If it was not for scholarships and grants like Project iAm and the people in the community that help keep this organization alive, she would not be able to learn and grow in the ways I know she can. Being able to be a part of an organization that truly cares about kids like Shelby who live right here in our community has been life changing.Thank you again for all you do.The Reardon Family

Ben received a renewal for services due to his constant progress with his programs! There is never enough that can be said about Alysha. She started out as a volunteer and has become one of the core members of our organization. Always willing and dependable, weve been able to grow as a group because of Alysha.

Kasam had his scholarship renewed in honor of the great City of Maumee. Maumee has continuously been the home to our premiere event, Acoustics for Autism, and has become part of the Project iAm family. Kasams family has been contributing time to whatever events they are able by volunteering and paying it forward to new iAm families.

Jaxson Will be using his funding for ABA therapy. The Anderson’s has consistently been a part of the Project iAm family and has saved us thousands of dollars by being our official ticket vendor as well as always donating to our events. Because of the kindness and support of this wonderful corporation, we’ve been able to provide scholarships to children like Jaxson.

Braedens scholarship to the ASNO summer program was renewed in honor of Torie Thorne. Torie has continued her selfless effort to assist in all Project iAm events and has become an important part of our volunteers. Braedens family has also become a new addition to the volunteering efforts of our organization and has continued to grow in his treatment and therapy.

Landon will be using his funds toward the Lindamood-Bell Center. With a smile on her face, Kim was always one of the first people to volunteer her time to Project iAm. No matter what the event or the task, she and her friends always enjoyed the events and the wonderful contribution they made to them have given us the opportunity to be able to fund scholarships for children like Landon. Very sadly, Kim just passed away unexpectedly, and we hope that the news of Landons progress can bring some joy to the Kohl family, just as she did to ours.

Jaidyn applied for and received a renewal of his scholarship at Serenity Farm for his Equestrian therapy. His grandmother states, “The saddest day was when Vail Meadows closed their doors for good. I had found Serenity Farm and visited their facility it is so wonderful there, but unfortunately we could not afford the therapy there. For nearly a year and a half now whenever we drive anywhere near a route toward the Horse Ranch Jai Jai says Nana Horse, look this way,. Nana Horse Please. And now because of your compassion, hard work and vigilance Jaidyn can resume what he is Passionate about and he will gain more words.

Parker will be using his funds for the Promedica Early Autism Program. 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 found there were more and more children bands in the area who wanted to help. Our dear friend Chuck and his band The Wannabees have faithfully played our event for several years bringing entertainment to the hundreds of patrons and children. Without people like Chuck and his band, we would not be able to raise the money we do for children like Parker!
