JOSHUA’S GIFT
SUPPORTING THE AUTISM COMMUNITY
OUR STORY
Joshua’s Gift began with our son, a diagnosis, and a family determined to find a better way.
When our son Joshua was diagnosed with severe autism at just two and a half years old, we quickly discovered that a diagnosis came with far more questions than answers. Like so many families, we were searching for resources, support, understanding, and hope, while learning to navigate a world that often felt difficult to understand.
Along the way, we met countless families facing those same challenges. We realized that while every family’s journey is unique, no family should have to navigate it alone.
That realization became Joshua’s Gift.
Today, we support families living with autism and intellectual and developmental disabilities through community, resources, education, advocacy, and direct support. From creating inclusive experiences and providing essential resources to helping families during times of need, we are committed to making sure every family feels seen, supported, and connected.
Through Code Joshua, we also work with law enforcement and other first responders to promote greater understanding and safer, more compassionate interactions with individuals living with autism and IDD.
What began with Joshua has become a mission to help families everywhere experience not only support, but belonging, dignity, and hope.
Because every family deserves to know: You are not alone.
100 FOR HOPE
We're launching the 100 for Hope campaign, a mission to raise $100,000 in just 3 weeks to fund critical safety programs, emergency response kits, caregiver training, and GPS tracking solutions that save lives.
Every dollar brings hope. Every donation creates real change.Every gift could mean the difference between fear and safety… between heartbreak and reunion.
$100,000 can do more than just fund programs, it can give families peace of mind and children with autism a safer world.
💙 Be one of the 1,000 donors to give $100 or whatever you can.
💙 Together, we can meet this goal. Together, we can bring them home.
👉 Donate now.
Be their hope. Because no parent should ever have to imagine this, and no child should be lost without help.
