London's Autistic Family Foundation

Some of the proceeds from each purchase goes to our charity, London's Autistic Family Foundation (LAFF) - "Helping our beautiful & largely misunderstood autistic children & their families so they can, once again, smile & LAFF!"  We help financially so that the children can get the necessary medical therapies, but we also gift specialized toys & equipment.

**Autism Awareness Month is April, but these kids & families need help every single day of the year. Every little bit counts & makes a huge difference.  In Southern CA, it costs over $170,000/year per autistic child to get the most basic care, not even what they really need.  A lot of insurances do not want to cover the costs, so unless rich or at/under the poverty level, there is no help once your child turns 3, but before then, it can take up to 1 year to get services up until they "age out" at 3 (& they are usually diagnosed around 2 years old, so if you are lucky enough to get the help before 3, it would be amazing!  This has to change, which is why I created this charity, named in honor of my 4 y/o son, London, who is one of the kids that insurance doesn't want to fully cover the costs (the insurance company has terminated his insurance multiple times, so nothing was covered, only out of pocket, but I could not & still cannot afford that), we are not at the poverty level, & nowhere near being rich.

 

I was an RN for 18+ yrs, but severely disabled from that career in 2023, & opened my business to provide for my family & help others.  I don't want other kids & families to have to experience what we have had to endure with not being able to afford all of his therapies and specialized toys & equipment.  It's my way of still giving back even though I can't be a working RN anymore.
