Thanks to you we’re at $2,594 and have helped many children to get what they need to learn!

Here’s a thank you note from Mrs. H:

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! This just made my day. Your support of autism education is so appreciated. These resources will provide my students with countless additional learning opportunities. I strive for my classroom to be a place that feels safe for my students; a place where they are understand and that they understand. These resources will give me more ideas and activities to make this possible. Working with students with autism is not always easy but your support makes it worth while! Thank you again!!

Sincerely, Mrs. H

There is a certain camaraderie that mustache wearing folks have.  A sort of unspoken acknowledgment that we’re in this together.  That we’re human and we need to be loved just like everybody else does. (The Smiths)

As such, I asked several fellow mustachios I ran into if I could take their photo to post on my blustache. These are real folks that I met.  No google image people here.
