Volunteering Has Changed!
But We Still NEED You!
As you can imagine, the COVID-19 pandemic has impacted us in every possible way. AutismOklahoma is following the CDC guidelines and as such, we are cancelling or postponing most in-person gatherings. Your safety, and the safety of family, friends, volunteers, and your hometown community is our highest priority. This is an opportunity for us all to live and demonstrate the flexibility on which our families survive.
We know that the disruptions to routines and school and work schedules we’re experiencing can be most unsettling to our kids with autism. We have developed a variety of programs and ways to engage families and volunteers in virtual programming.
Thank you all for being such an enthusiastic and vital part of AutismOklahoma and the nearly 5,000 children, adults and families we directly impact each year.
BLAST – A Pen Pal Project with Life.Church
BLAST is an amazing program developed with Life.Church to bring hope and friendship to children and adults with autism!
Life.Church volunteers, watch the video sign up below!
If your organization would like to think outside the box for ways to volunteer, please let us know. We would love to work with your employee team to develop a safe way to make a difference.
Not looking for a pen pal? There is also a way for LifeGroup & SWITCH leaders to sign up their group and make a difference! Each month there is a fun craft project that you can start and finish during your meeting! You can also do the craft virtually if you aren’t meeting as a group! Check it out!
Volunteering In the Oklahoma City Area
Some of our activities based in the Oklahoma City area are continuing to meet. Check GENERAL for ways to be a part of supporting on-going programs or helping behind the scenes. If you are want to support a cool upcoming EVENT in the OKC area, look no further! Giving a few hours will make a big difference and give you “all the feels”.
Our next big event is on December 5, 2020 and will be a Drive-In to Christmas! This fun drive-in movie will be for all families affected by autism and we need YOU to make it really special! See the button below to volunteer!
