TARZANA, CA, April 14, 2009
/24-7PressRelease/ -- Parents and supporters of children with autism are invited to attend the Love, Hope and Healing, A Mother's Day Luncheon held at The Resort at Pelican Hill on May 4th, in Newport Coast, hosted by Autism Care and Treatment (ACT Today!).
"The gift of hope is the best gift a mother can receive. If you know a mother of a child on the autism spectrum, show her your love by treating her to a day of inspiration at one of the most beautiful resorts in the world. All the proceeds will go to grants for autistic children so you'll be giving hope to other mothers who need our support, " says ACT Today!'s Executive Director, Nancy Alspaugh-Jackson.
The ACT Today! fundraiser luncheon features Honorary Guest Dr. Doreen Granpeesheh, a world renowned autism researcher and psychologist, who has recently been noted for her award-winning documentary "RECOVERED: Journeys Through the Autism Spectrum and Back". Fellow autism expert and biomedical clinician, Dr. Jeffrey Bradstreet is the Keynote Speaker.
"As the mother of a son who's recovered from autism, my heart goes out too families who are unable to afford treatments which will help their children," says Event Producer Laura Marroquin. "It is a privilege to indirectly help by being part of this fabulous event."
Tickets for the Love, Hope and Healing, A Mother's Day Luncheon, which begins with a champagne terrace reception with the speakers at 11:00am, are $125 and can be purchased online at http://www.act-today.org. Each attendee will receive fabulous Gift Bags valued at over $500.
