Raising $165,000 - one dollar at a time!

Funding Update: As of today, we've raised $26! Don't laugh - each and every single dollar we raise counts towards our final goal, and we greatly appreciate all purchases and donations, no matter how large or how small.
I have approximately 550 days to raise $165,000, which means I need to raise approximately $300 a day. Right now we are no where near that goal, so my job over the next couple of days is to expand the store and continue to get the word out. If you know of anyone who you think would like to support our cause, please forward them a link to our blog.

We are currently fundraising in two ways: Accepting cash donations ($20.00 to date!) and by earning a commission on items sold through our shop ($6.00 so far!). If you haven't visited our store, please do! We have some great items , including Jake's Place EFEL Tshirts, tote bags, coasters, stickers and buttons, and Jake's Place Autism Therapy teddy bears, buttons, magnets and more!

A big thank you and (((HUGZ))) to those of you who have already shown your support! You are helping me lay the foundation of Jake's Place, and I appreciate you more than you could possibly know!
