It all started when...

In 2014, our charity started as a Fashion Fundraiser known in the Manhattan community as “Couture for a Cause.”  We used Fashion Shows as a fundraising platform for raising awareness for Children with Special Needs.  In addition to these efforts, our staff was able to use social media to highlight a discrepancy of information regarding Childhood Blood Lead Levels.  The National Institute of Health website had posted a reference amount that was 2x the allowed amount.  We tirelessly took to X, (formerly Twitter) to encourage the correction and within a matter of weeks, they made the appropriate adjustment.  

Not being satisfied there, we engaged in grassroots lobbying with Senators and Assembly members to draft a bill that would become law! Following our work, the statewide level for testing blood levels was dropped to its current standard of 5ug/dL, protecting every child in New York from high lead levels.

Did you know...

Adults with Autism have a much higher risk of becoming homeless.  According to the National Autistic Society only 15% of Autistics have a full time job and only 9% have a part time job.  Those without family support often fall through the cracks.  It is this consideration that lead our charity to pick up the cause of providing relief to the homeless.  Through a"Spring Cleaning"  inspired campaign, we were able to provide clothes and more to shelters, agencies, and individuals across all 5 boroughs and parts of Long Island.  Each Spring we aim to do the same.  Contact us to join in this cause~
