iCapital launches 2nd annual “#givealatte” campaign to bolster hard-to-come-by integrated autism support
The prevalence of autism spectrum disorders in Canada believed to affect 1 in 94 children, and be on the rise. While most Canadians are aware of autism and know families affected by it, the difficulty to access services is lesser known. Healthcare coverage varies from province to province and there are months-long queues to access programs. For kids and teens with autism and their families, negotiating the system is extremely challenging. Not to mention the financial strain it places on many.
On January 27th, iCapital’s Give a Latte campaign gives $20,000 to Autism Ontario
#givealatte ended up quadrupling its initial goal: through social media and word of mouth, it ended up raising $10,100! In fact, the campaign hit its $2,500 funding goal within a few hours of launch, doubled it by the end of the week, and ended up with 400% by the time it closed on December 28th, 2014.
Autism doesn’t go away when you turn 18 – so why does funding?
Autism awareness has come a long way since Autism Ontario was first established in 1973, but there is still a ways to go.
