Description

Description:

The Flutie Foundation proudly supports not-for-profit organizations that share our mission to help people and families with autism live life to the fullest. Through our Autism Community Impact Grant, we consider funding requests for programs and projects that demonstrate the potential to make a meaningful and immediate impact in the autism community. 

Priority will be given to initiatives that align with the Flutie Foundation’s Seven Key Dimensions. We proudly support the full spectrum including those with profound autism, and prioritize traditionally underserved, underfunded, and culturally diverse communities.  

Additionally, we strongly consider organizations that actively participate in Flutie Foundation events and collaborate with us on activities and initiatives throughout the year, demonstrating a shared commitment to our mission and community impact.
