April is Autism Awareness Month!!! And we are trying to make a difference…

On April 7th, 2023, the FSU Early Childhood Autism Program (ECAP) will be hosting our 11th Annual

Auction for Autism Awareness! All proceeds of this event go to the ECAP Butchikas Scholarship

fund, which provides financial assistance to families affected by autism in Bay County who need help

paying for therapy. Because ECAP is a non-profit program for children with autism, we need your help!!!

We have set a fundraising goal this year of $15,000, which could provide hundreds of hours of

therapy to families in need, and we are asking you to help us meet this goal!

Any donation that you could give would be greatly appreciated! We are looking for:

• Gift certificates

• Any item that could go into the auction: toys, gift baskets, clothing, jewelry…

anything!

• Monetary donations

• …or any other items that you would be willing to donate!

• ….and come join us at our event! Friday April 7th from 6-9 pm at FSU Panama City

FSU-ECAP will be making themed baskets out of smaller items donated, so no gift is too small! If

you want, you can even put together a basket yourself to donate! Here are some ideas: Dinner

and a Movie Gift Basket, Chef’s Basket, Girl’s Night Out Gift Basket, Dog Lover’s Gift Basket, etc.
