The
Earthly Angels Autism Fund of the Luzerne Foundation is dedicated to helping
local children afflicted with autism. Our mission is to proactively increase
autism awareness; provide funding to qualified nonprofit organizations for
autistic services, support programs and education; and to bring hope to those
families who deal with the hardships of this disorder.
Our purpose is to find ways
to help the lives of local autistic children and their families. Having a
child diagnosed as autistic enables us to provide a unique perspective and
allows us to reach out to many local families in a knowing and caring way.
ADVISORY COMMITTEE:
An advisory
committee oversees all activities of the Fund and participates in the entire
decision making process. The purpose of the advisory committee is to gather
input from a variety of people. To have multiple individuals involved in making
decisions has its advantages and ultimately will be most beneficial.
