      COCKTAIL WITH FRIENDS

A child is diagnosed

with autism every 20

minutes.

Autism is more

common that

childhood cancers,

AIDS, and diabetes

combined.

On July 9^th, C PERSONNEL, in collaboration with THE BIG BLUE HUG, held and catered its first autism fundraiser.

It was a beautiful sunny afternoon; we all met on the South Shore, to enjoy drinks, hors d’oeuvres and great company

The goal of this small gathering was to raise funds for a family, who have a child living with autism. The family was chosen through a nomination process by Alia Nassef (from C PERSONNEL) and Jason Goldsmith (THE BIG BLUE HUG).

Having an autistic child themselves, Alia and Jason can really relate to the struggles any family would have to deal with, when faced with a diagnosis of

autism. Their goal through this fund raiser was to lend a helping hand to a deserving family, and let them know that they are not alone.

The afternoon began with drinks and a sale of Jason’s art and Alia’s gourmet treats!
