My Students

Our students with autism really need headphones so they can filter our the noise around them and help them focus. We also need a new table. The one we have is very old and is about to break.

We have a great class of boys with autism.

They are very sensitive to noise and like listening to music and books on tape but can't do it unless they can filter out the noise around them. In addition we really need a new table. The table we have is so old and about to break. Please help!

My Project

With these materials our students will be able to focus and learn from books on tape. They will also be able to calm down when they are upset by listening to music without other noises interrupting them. Our current table is so old we use tape to hold it together - I don't think it has much time left!

Please help this wonderful group of students with autism.

They are all such wonderful kids with great smiles and deserve equipment and a table that can help them with their education.
