Stories of Joy

The Channing's Joy Foundation is dedicated to promoting inclusion and acceptance of Autism and all individuals with special needs. All funds raised go to help families of children with special needs receive therapy and access to helpful resources.

"I never thought I could potty train my non-speaking son but we are almost to the end of the potty training journey and we wouldn't have been able to do it without the help of the Autism Consultant and Channing's Joy Foundation for giving us a scholarship. Thank you so much!!"

-Palmer's Mama

"Thank you is not enough. The funds sent to use to help cover our ABA bills is such a blessing and I am truly grateful. I hope to do this for others one day!"

-Taysom's Mama

"Oh my goodness! You have no idea what a weight this lifts off of us. We have been run down, exhausted, and stressed. I have missed my boys terribly as I have been trying to work all evenings and weekends trying to make up this money. We have been praying and praying that God would give us a miracle because I just didn't see it happening that we could physically come up with this amount on our own. We are sobbing. The feeling that we couldn't provide something our boys needed was just mentally debilitating. This will change our lives. I will never be able to express how thankful we are."

- Luke + Logan's Mama

"The most difficult part of being autism parents for us has been the fight for Lucas' schooling. It has been exhausting and frustrating. We know how smart and amazing our little man is and the fact that people wouldn't even give him a chance to success is heart-breaking. Thank you for putting your money where your mouth is and supporting Lucas' school. They have been inclusive since the start and he is thriving because of it!"

-Lucas' Mama + Daddy

"Thank you so much again for everything. We're having such a great time. God placed you in our lives for a reason. Carowinds has so many options for disabilities & we didn't have to wait in line long. Great beautiful weather today! We thank God so much!"

-Jaborie's Mama

"The Channing's Joy Foundation very kindly helped our son Jude by purchasing him a Wonderfold Wagon. This wagon has changed our lives and more importantly Jude's life in giving him a safe haven to be in when we are out and about."
