Autism Aid Expanded to Sacramento and Fresno County Through Local Carlos Vieira Foundation Grant Program
Local charity provides support to families living with autism in Fresno and Sacramento.
Livingston, CA, May 30, 2015 --(PR.com)-- Parents and guardians of children living with autism in Sacramento and Fresno Counties can now apply for grant funding through the Carlos Vieira Foundation. The grant program offers assistance by providing educational tools, medical necessities, electronics, and a wide array of products and services that help a child diagnosed with autism to flourish.
Families living in Merced, Stanislaus, Madera, Mariposa, Tuolumne, San Joaquin, Fresno, and Sacramento Counties that wish to apply for this Direct Help Grant can visit their website at www.carlosvieirafoundation.org to fill out an application. Each child can be granted up to $500 annually towards items or expenses that will improve the quality of life and help a child with an autism spectrum disorder.
When asked why the Foundation expanded to Sacramento and Fresno, Carlos Vieira, founder and President answered, “It was the next step. We already cover all counties from San Joaquin to Madera. Expanding to Fresno and Sacramento means our grant program is growing. Helping families living with autism is our core mission. One day we hope to cover all of California and beyond.”
The Foundation will be exhibiting at the Autism Speaks Walk Now event and fundraiser on May 31, 2015 in Sacramento and the one in October in Modesto where thousands of families can pick up information about the grant offering and speak to a foundation representative about the application process.
Throughout the year the Foundation hosts many fundraisers to fund our grant program to help the community. Generous sponsors like 51FIFTY Energy Drink have donated thousands to the program as well as spreading Autism Awareness throughout the state of California.
