With this fundraiser we chose to help a local family that has 3 children on the Autism Spectrum. You can read all about the Torres Family here:

We will follow up with the Torres Family to let you know exactly what they did with the funds.

This is the 2nd time that Amaretto has raised funds for Autism Awareness, the first time Amaretto community pulled together to make a great donation to help Therapeutic Riding Centers across the globe!

It always amazes me how the Amaretto community comes togther for a great cause and children are always a good one. Autism has effected me personally having a newphew that is non verbal and non functioning I know first hand its hard, heartbreaking, and selfless. Please consider getting a few more of these Autism Awareness Animals to help spread the word and help a family that is in need.
If you do not want to purchase any animals but still would like to help please go to any amaretto location and pay the Light it up Blue Kiosk!
