More About Me...

I'm Melissa, your Mindless Mommy. I started this blog in 2007 to discuss my journey as a mom of two children on the autism spectrum.

Another Tidbit...

I am also a freelance writer and a college student. In my 30s I discovered what I wanted to be when I gew up and I'm studying to be an SLP.

DonorsChoose.org - Help an Autism Teacher

Phoebe posted a short but sweet (and oh so important) link on her blog to celebrate Valentine’s Day - Autism is my valentine.  She points readers to a website called Donors Choose where people can search for a teacher in search of supplies for his/her classroom.  It is a sad but very true fact that many schools in the United States are underfunded - this is doubly so for classrooms dedicated to educating children with an autism spectrum disorder.  By going to donorschoose.org and typing in the search phrase autism you are met with pages of teachers looking for supplies for their autism rooms.  Instead of spending $50 on a dozen roses that will wither away and die soon, consider donating some much-needed items to a teacher.

Thank you Phoebe for the great idea!
