Help Neurodiverse Students Thrive at Meristem

At Meristem, I witness something extraordinary every single day: young adults discovering their voices, building skills, and preparing for lives of independence and purpose. This year you have the potential to unlock $46,000 in matching funds.

Your support helps to:

1. Equip Our Workshops: Providing industry-standard tools and materials for our culinary, landscaping, and fabrication programs.

2. Fund Personalized Coaching: Sponsoring the one-on-one sessions that help students practice for job interviews and navigate workplace dynamics.

3. Support Independent Living: Ensuring our students have the guidance they need to master budgeting, transportation, and other essential life skills.

On Thursday, May 7th, you have the chance to be a vital part of this work. Join us for the Big Day of Giving and make a gift that builds skills, confidence, and bright futures for young adults with autism.

Meristem is more than just a program. It’s a launching pad where autistic and neurodiverse young adults build friendships, find their talents, and take their next steps toward employment, independent living, and full community inclusion.

Please consider making a donation to my fundraiser today. Your gift isn’t just a donation — it’s an investment in a young adult’s future. It’s a vote of confidence that says: I see your potential. I believe in you.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart for standing with Meristem students.
