Sponsor a book for Autism Education and Awareness

As part of my second annual autism event for 2008, I am once again asking individuals and organizations to contribute books on the topic of Autism which will be given out during the event to parents and caregivers.  Autism Advocacy is now a Non-profit organization, so donations are tax deductible.  The event will be held at the CSIU in Montandon, April, 17th 2008.

I am focusing on giving something back to these loving, courageous individuals for their dedication and on-going efforts in helping a loved one with autism.  This journey is not easy and encouragement is greatly appreciated.  Currently little is offered in the way of support for these parents/caregivers and they deserve recognition for the love and effort they give daily. I have entered some new titles which focus on siblings, friendship and children who love someone with autism.

If you would like to sponsor a book you may do so in two ways.  I encourage those who can to purchase the suggested books from local booksellers.  You may also place an on-line order at Amazon or any online bookseller and have the book shipped to my address. 
 

For shipping purposes, my address is: 
Susan Colon
Autism Advocacy.org
10 South 7th St.
 Lewisburg, PA  17837

Please contact me with Questions.

Autism-advocacy.org does not benefit financially from this project in any way. 
All donated books will be given out during the Autism Event. Some books are reserved for our lending library which parents can access by contacting me.
