Being sponsored by the All Hands In Autism Foundation was truly a blessing for me and my family. At the time, I was a newly single mother of four children, one of whom is diagnosed with ASD, trying to rebuild our lives after fleeing from a domestic violence situation. We were displaced, and I was not working, which left me deeply concerned about how I would be able to provide my children with even the simplest gifts for Christmas.

When I received a call from Sabrina letting me know that she wanted to sponsor my family, I was overwhelmed with gratitude. It felt like a weight had been lifted off my shoulders. In the middle of one of the most difficult seasons of my life, this act of generosity brought joy, relief, and hope to my children and me.

I will forever be thankful to the All Hands In Autism Foundation for showing us love and support when we needed it most. Their kindness made our holiday season brighter and reminded us that we were not alone.

Ever since we were blessed to meet Sabrina she’s continued to reinvigorate our children’s interest in reading, writing and math throughout the summer. We greatly appreciate her, her family and organization. Even our children recognize the impact of her kind acts. We were not expecting, nor were we aware of how much of a blessing a complete stranger could be until we met Sabrina at Barnes & Noble. While we don’t know what prompted this connection. We are certainly grateful!

It has been a blessing in disguise as we did not know her contribution would be so crucial to our family this year. She was kind enough to purchase 42 books, six lego sets, kids STEM learning kits, grade level workbooks, and individual Bibles for each of our children. We hope she, the organization that she represents, continues to thrive as they have made a noticeable impact in our own lives as an entire family.
