My story
Hi, my name is Alisha, and I’m raising funds to support my brother, Leo, who is living with autism. Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a condition that affects how a person interacts with the world, and for my brother, this means facing daily challenges that many of us might take for granted.
Leo is full full of personality, with a deep love for his iPad, going out for the day and much more. But like many individuals with autism, he faces unique challenges in areas like communication, social interaction, and sensory processing. These challenges can sometimes make simple tasks, like going to the shops or interacting with others, overwhelming and exhausting for him.
Over the years, we’ve seen him grow and learn in remarkable ways—thanks to the support of our family, friends, and the professionals who work with him. But we know that there’s still so much more we can do to help him live a fuller, more independent life. That’s where this fundraiser comes in.
The money raised will go towards:
• Therapies and Support Services: Including speech therapy, occupational therapy, and other specialized services that help my brother improve his skills and overall quality of life.
• Educational Resources: Providing him with the tools and resources he needs to continue learning in a way that suits his unique needs.
• Sensory-Friendly Activities and Outings: Helping him enjoy new experiences in environments that are tailored to his sensory needs, promoting his well-being and mental health.
• Autism Awareness: Supporting local initiatives and programs that raise awareness and promote inclusion for those on the spectrum.
Every donation, big or small, will make a real difference in my brother’s life. It will help ensure that he has access to the resources, opportunities, and support he needs to thrive. Your contribution will also go a long way in raising awareness about autism and helping others understand and appreciate the diverse ways in which people experience the world.
Thank you for taking the time to read this and for supporting Leo and others like him. Together, we can make a meaningful impact and continue to support his journey as he takes on each new day with strength, courage, and determination.
Love Alisha xx
