April is Autism Awareness/Acceptance month, and we though this would be a great month for our first ever #fundraiser. We suggest you donate what you’d spend to go out to dinner with your family, and instead, eat your meal at home with the only communication coming from our bilingual “mealtime” core board!

Now, we know there are only 12 words on our core board – that’s 10 more than the first communication options most AAC users get in English. You’ll have to be creative to do your whole meal in silence 😀

You can either send your donation via paypal to lakhotiyapiaac@gmail.com, or you can head on over to our facebook page to our fundraiser there, which you can share with your friends.

Funds will be used to cover basic operating expenses, get some custom designed icons for concepts that just don’t translate well from English, and potentially either get devices in users’ hands, or to help provide a translated playground board to a reservation school. We’re hoping to start looking for grants and grant partnerships that we can use to fund voice development and device implementation.

Thanks in advance for your support!
