The Autism Can End Grant Fund

 

 

Tim Stiers 

In 2003 I was saddened to learn my great-nephew was diagnosed with Autism, something I knew nothing about. I learned quickly that early intervention with intense one on one therapy was critical for his development of communication and social skills. Knowing the work efforts and accomplishments it took I am proud of my nephew and my wife "Aunt Barb".

My main roll in EDM is to review all the grant applications along with my wife Barb and a third impartial representative. There are hundreds of families in need of financial support and we have limited funds to disburse so the process of choosing that disbursement is a difficult process.

Since the inception of ACE (Autism Can End) annual golf outing fund raiser Barb and I have coordinated the silent auction which has continued to grow over the years and supply a meaningful contribution to the grant fund.
