Make an impact by donating, joining our events, or sponsoring a cause that uplifts families through AJ and the Cool Kids.
At AJ and the Cool Kids Autism Foundation, our commitment to serving families in the autistic community drives everything we do. Through our annual fundraising gala, we celebrate the strength, resilience, and love within this community while making a tangible difference in the lives of those we serve.
Each year, we proudly select a deserving family to receive a one-time grant designed to help alleviate expenses related to an autism diagnosis. This initiative allows us to directly support families and bring hope where it’s needed most.
We are now accepting nominations for this year’s honoree! If you know a family who deserves this recognition, please submit their name for consideration using the link below. Submissions close soon, and the selected family will be announced in April 2025.
Together, we can uplift and empower the autism community, one family at a time.

“AJ and the Cool Kids has done wonders for the autism community. I finally felt seen as a parent and caregiver of a child with autism. I was honored to be her first family to be honored at their annual gala.”
