According to the Centers for Disease Control, autism spectrum disorder (ASD) affects 1 in 36 children in the United States today. In fact, it’s estimated that over 2% of the U.S. adult population is on the autism spectrum. Early intervention - including diagnosis, treatment, and support - is crucial as it significantly improves many outcomes for children's lives. This is why Autism Tree focuses on supporting children and families living with and affected by autism.
Autism Tree was established in 2003 by parents Todd and Dayna Hoff following their son’s autism diagnosis. The organization provides over 200 community-based family events annually under their 20 programs, each created to engage the autism community in a variety of play-centered activities to build social confidence and communication skills. Additionally, the organization offers early intervention preschool screenings in San Diego County and the Bay Area which have impacted over 2.8 million children to date. All of these programs are offered completely free of charge to any family affected by autism or developmental delays.
“Autism has directly impacted the GoMacro family, so this Give Back partnership is personally meaningful to us,” says Jola Sonkin, CEO and Co-Founder of GoMacro. “‘Be Well’ is one of Our 5 Principles that are foundational to our mission as a company, and we’re proud to support an organization that promotes healthy, happy lives for everyone. We’re really looking forward to giving back to a cause that impacts so many individuals within the GoMacro community and beyond.”
