Clara Is Enjoying Her New Outdoor Playset
Clara, with severe level 3 autism, is enjoying her new outdoor playset and is making fun memories with her brothers.
Thank you from Clara’s Family
“We received the playground, and with the help of friends and neighbors, got it built. This experience was faster than expected and such a treasure to our family and neighbors. So many people heard about this program and wanted more information for various reasons. And wanted to help us complete her dream. Clara felt special and had fun choosing her gift with her brothers. Plus, it brought a lot of joy to our family. Thank you!” – Clara’s mom, Karin
