Story

I'm raising money to help DDI continue to offer outstanding programs to benefit individuals with autism and other developmental disabilities.

For those of you that haven't seen my son's recent artwork, this photo shows how much progress Andrew has made over the years. Andrew recently painted a picture of the famous Whisper the Bull of Smithtown, NY. The Town of Smithtown purchased it and it will displayed in Town Hall. Thank you to the staff who assisted with Andrew completing his project. We are so grateful for the 24/7 care that DDI provides for our son and so many other individuals. Also, Andrew's health has improved, however, he continues to have medical issues which require several follow-up appointments. I would never be able to keep up his medical care and also take care of Thomas at home without the help of DDI.

I'm asking anyone that can help by making a donation to help DDI. No donation is too small and as always we are forever grateful to all that have helped in the past.

Love,

Ellen, Glenn, Christine, Andrew & Thomas
