Ten Dollar Tuesday at Age of Autism
Last week we launched Ten Dollar Donor Tuesday. Many readers responded with an online or paper check donation, and your thank you is on its way electronically or by mail. Summer here is a blur of scheduling and running 1000 miles in place - how about your house? I run AofA from my home, in the nerve center of every Italian American mother's home - la cucina!
Our dear friend and Founding Editor Dan Olmsted used to answer emails with: "We always enjoy hearing from our readers." He meant it and we still do. Comments and critiques alike! As Managing Editor, one of my roles is to keep our site up and running each and every day as we continue to follow the autism epidemic. And that means raising funds. It's not the pleasant part of what I do, that's for sure. Autism Mom here - we rarely ask for help, right?
We invite readers to donate $10 today. Consider donating $10 monthly. Tax deductible. We have a lot of dedicated readers and $10 adds up quickly. Don't forget matching gifts if your company has a program. And we participate in Amazon SMILE as well - shop for good!
If you've never donated, I hope you'll consider today.
We use secure, safe Merchant Services through Bank of America on the donate button. Or, if you're a paper check kind of person, you can send to:

PO Box 110546

Thank you. Kim
Thank you so so much for the work you do every day, Kim!

I've now tried twice to make a (small) donation, but both times it has logged me out. I', sure I've managed before and wondered if anyone else had this problem. I'm in UK but that shouldn't make any difference. I can't see a Paypal option.
Any suggestions, please.

Bob, you are always our first commenter of the day! If 10% of readers donated $10 a month we’d be delighted. I know we ALL are watching every dollar. XOX

I greatly appreciate the role YOU play in "keeping our site up and running each and every day" Thanks for all YOU have done and continue to do every day. Wish I could contribute more .. but .. the check for my small contribution is in the mail.
