πβ¨ We did It β Thank You, Wilmington! β¨π
Because of YOU β our amazing community β the Abelβs Angels Raffle Fundraiser raised an incredible $5,095! π
Every single dollar goes toward helping provide locator devices for local special-needs children, offering safety, peace of mind, and love to families who need it most.
This fundraiser was created in memory of Liam King, a 7-year-old nonverbal autistic boy from Asheboro, NC, whose story touched our hearts and inspired action. π Through your generosity, weβre helping to keep other children safe β and that means everything.
We want to extend our deepest gratitude to:
π Everyone who purchased raffle tickets, showed up for chair massages, or made personal donations
π The 30+ local businesses who generously donated prizes
π The incredible Native Salt Cave & Wellness staff for shamelessly (and tirelessly!) promoting the cause β sharing, selling tickets, and spreading the word every chance they got
And of course, to everyone who believed in Abelβs Angels and helped make this possible β thank you for turning compassion into action.
This journey isnβt over yet β our mission continues with Abelβs Awesome Autism Day on Monday, November 11 (Veterans Day), a donation-based, sensory-friendly day dedicated to local special-needs families. Call to reserve your spot, and donate what you can, IF you canπ§©π
From the bottom of our hearts β thank you for showing up for our community, for one another, and for every child who deserves to be safe and seen. π«
