A Christmas Surprise!
We are extremely pleased to announce that Portage Mutual Insurance chose Autism Portage as their designated charity this year!
HUGE thanks to the employees of Portage Mutual, who generously contributed at their Christmas party.
The cheque for $1,555 was presented to Loreley on December 18th by Cindy, Caroline, Lori, Jason and Karen from the Social Committee.
We cannot adequately express our thanks for the generosity and thoughtfulness of Portage Mutual and its employees! We will be sure to put this donation to good use for our families!

Now available: Autism t-shirts, hoodies and book/shopping bags
The logo says it all: People with autism are whole and complete beings (represented by the closed circle), who are multifaceted and complex (multi-coloured puzzle pieces), defined by more than a single label. The three-word slogan reminds us that children and adults with autism deserve our acceptance, understanding, and most of all, our love.
Cotton t-shirts, pull-over hoodies and full-zip hoodies are available in black, navy, red and heather, in both adult and children's sizes. The autism logo will be embroidered on the top left corner. The book/shopping bag comes in black, and is made of 85% post-consumer recycled plastic. Prices for the items range from $12 to $50.
All proceeds will go directly to support the Autism Portage Support Group and its activities, and to the maintenance of the website.
Orders can be placed throughout the year. These items would make great gifts for our kids, grandparents, other relatives, teachers, EA's, childcare workers, and anyone who knows and supports our great kids.
Download an order form or contact Loreley for more information. Our kids, and Autism Portage, thank you for your support!
