My Nonprofit Reviews

Autism Spectrum Disorder Foundation is a wonderful foundation that has helped my son (on the autism spectrum) for several years. ASDF has provided my son much needed therapy equipment (that my family could not afford otherwise). The equipment has helped my son overcome many of his sensory problems. He is no longer in need of OT therapy! That is HUGE! ASDF has also helped my son with a new bicycle (fitted to his needs). His bike has given him a new, "unknown freedom" that every child should experience. My family is also greatly appreciative to the much needed Holiday Gift Card Program. Raising a child on the autism spectrum is very costly, thanks to all the therapy needed. If it wasn't for ASDF helping us with a gift card, my son would not have had Christmas gifts to open, warm winter clothes to wear, nor would we have had food in our bellies over the winter. Finally, one of the best "gifts" ASDF has given my son is swim lessons at our YMCA. Thanks to the lessons, my son has: overcome many sensory issues with water, has built up his core muscles, and has totally built up his confidence. The most important "gift" the swim lessons have provided is learning a new, LIFE SAVING skill. My family can't thank the Autism Spectrum Disorder Foundation enough for all that they have done for my son. We are forever grateful to this wonderful foundation and to those that have made the help available to families like ours. THANK YOU!

I would also like to add one more thing to my review. I have been reading through the volunteer reviews and see so many negative comments about ASDF. Some have said that they use 60% of the donations go toward expenses. I am sure they do. The therapy equipment, bicycle, swim lessons, and Holiday Gift Cards they have helped my family with ARE expenses (and that isn't including the iPads, camps, computers, etc. that they have provided other families over the years). PLEASE do not be discouraged by the few people that have given bad reviews. ASDF has helped our family, and many more across the US with children on the Autism Spectrum. They TRULY are a Godsend to our family. I am forever thankful a friend introduced me to ASDF. If you are looking to help with donations, this is the right place. They help families DIRECTLY (unlike many other organizations). Thank you for your help!
