April ENCC Winner: Aces for Autism
Website: https://www.acesforautismnc.com/
Aces for Autism was founded through the path of personal experiences with Kyle and Bobbie’s own son Samuel. Samuel was diagnosed with moderate to severe autism when he was 18 months old. They found they needed to drive several hours away to access resources at a development center for Autism in order to understand how to help Samuel. This led to them deciding to start a non-profit ministry in eastern NC to serve individuals and families impacted by autism. This is the basis of the development of Aces for Autism which now provides services for the individual and the families in the realms of behavior therapy, early intervention programs, classroom readiness programs, social skills groups, in-home therapy and parent coaching as well as school and community support.

Reindeer Dash for Cash
Ricci Law Firm Injury Lawyers was a water sponsor and provided volunteers for the Reindeer Dash for Cash 10 Miler and 5k Run held here in Greenville. The Reindeer Dash for Cash is a fundraising event to benefit the Captain Christopher Cash Memorial Foundation of NC, Inc.
Great Toy Takeaway
Throughout Nov and early Dec, our Greenville office collected toys for the 6th Annual Great Toy Takeaway. This wonderful, free holiday gift program was started back in 2014 by 5 year old Bailey. When she found out that not all kids get toys at Christmas, she began collecting toys to give away at a “free yard sale”. As this program has grown, she has been able to give away thousands of toys to hundreds of families each year. Ricci Law Firm Injury Lawyers are proud to be a part of this toy drive by not only collecting toys, but also volunteering the day of the event.

We all had a great time seeing all the wonderful pet costumes and getting lots of puppy kisses!
