The Faison School Art for Autism Gala was established in 2002 to help raise the much needed funding to carry out The Faison School's mission of service, training and research. We now know that according to the Center for Diseases Control (CDC) 1 in 110 children are affected with some form of autism. There is an overwhelming need for the children in Central Virginia and many cannot attend without financial support. Autism is not the life sentence it was once thought to be. We are making a difference. Please help us continue to make this a reality for the children of Virginia.
This year the gala will be held on April 15, 2011. The evening is one of the premier art events in Richmond. This year will be a special night featuring a live auction of art and amazing trips, and a live band for dancing after the auction. The silent auction includes local dining, golf, jewelry and much more.
There are many ways to support the school through sponsorship of the event and we welcome additional ideas. Please know your participation will elevate this important event to an even more successful level and is truly appreciated.
You may return completed forms by fax or mail. Please return forms as soon as possible so we may recognize you in our Gala materials. For any questions or for additional information, please contact:
