STRIVE ROCKS is their annual all-night party where volunteers and participants stay awake with games, karaoke, crafts, live music, inflatables, and energy drinks until 8AM the following morning. Fundraisers like this one help financially support their free services!

Thank you for sharing! I love my job, and speaking as an autistic someone who has not been treated kindly by institutions, schools, and employers, I'm so glad to be supporting other folks in activities that integrate them into their communities and help them achieve personally-crafted and individualized quality-of-life goals.

If anyone has questions about the work that we do before donating a fiver, lemme know and I'll do my best to accurately answer them.
Currently I am running the Sewing Club and work is underway to restore and rejuvenate our gardens. I'm hoping to run a crafting table during the all-nighter with a rotation of fun projects to make and keep the energy up, so if anyone has a suggestion for simple projects, I'm all ears.
