On behalf of Monee's Annual Autism Awareness Community BBQ, I would like to extend my sincere gratitude to everyone who attended and helped make this year's event a tremendous success. Seeing so many families, friends, and community members come together in support of autism awareness was truly a blessing.
A special thank you to Team Monee's—Ms. Tina, Ms. Monica, and Ms. London—your dedication, support, and hard work are greatly appreciated. To our wonderful volunteers, thank you for going above and beyond to ensure the event ran smoothly. Your willingness to serve made a tremendous difference.
To our setup crew—my amazing husband, Mr. George, along with Mr. Jimmy and Mr. Elijah—thank you for your countless hours of hard work and commitment. Your efforts helped bring this event to life.
A very special thank you to our neighbor, Ms. Elena, who not only donated to the event but also generously volunteered her time wherever help was needed. Your kindness and support mean so much.
To our grill master, Mr. Toussiant, thank you for stepping in at the last minute and blessing us with a delicious meal. The food was absolutely scrumptious, and your willingness to serve was truly appreciated.
I am also incredibly grateful for my church family, Saint Paul Life Center. Thank you for continually covering us in prayer and showing up with physical support. Your love and encouragement help sustain this mission. We also want to thank Central Baptist Church for coming out in great numbers and supporting our event.
We are growing, and God continues to bless this work. We look forward to hosting many more family-centered events that bring our community together and raise awareness for autism.
With much love and appreciation for our Autism Community,
CEO Simone
