If you haven’t heard of us before, the S.T.I.M. Project is an autistic-led non-profit organization with the sole objective of providing Sensory Tools (S.T.) and Informational Materials (I.M.) directly to autistic individuals and their families who otherwise would be unable to afford them at no cost. Our team is passionate about how much the things we provide can help autistic individuals in need because we know form experience that they help. We also know that they are things that aren’t covered by insurance.

So we need your help!

All donations made to The S.T.I.M. Project will go directly to providing sensory tools and informational materials to autistic individuals and their families in need and today we’re going to highlight 5 ways you can donate!

1. Support A Fundraiser – Right now The S.T.I.M. Project has storefronts with both See’s Candies and The Honey Baked Ham Co. If you’re already planning on making purchases with them (or are looking for an excuse to do so) visit thestimproject.org/fundraisers to shop with us so that 20% of your order total is donated!

2. Donate Directly – We’ve done our best to make it as easy as possible to donate to the project so you can find us on numerous platforms including: Givebutter, Paypal, Venmo, Facebook, and Instagram. Don’t forget that as a 501(c)3 public charity all direct donations to The S.T.I.M. Project are tax deductible regardless of the method you use to donate!

3. Corporate Matching – Does your employer match charitable donations? The S.T.I.M. Project is on Benevity to make it as easy as possible for you to get your donation matched!

4. The S.T.I.M. Project Store – Whether you want to pick up some tees or crewnecks to support the project or are looking for sensory tools and informational materials for yourself you should visit thestimproject.org/shop to support us! All proceeds from both our Bonfire merchandise shop and our Amazon Affiliate links help to support our mission.

5. Share The Project With Others – Regardless of how much you can donate one thing that we know everyone can do is share what we’re doing with others. Our goal is to be able to distribute 365 S.T.I.M. Packs to autistic individuals in need during our first year and to do that we need to reach as many people as possible!

Thank you to everyone who has supported the project so far, we couldn’t be doing any of this without you!
