Our Mission
We strive to bring illumination to children with autism and seniors in nursing homes through jigsaw puzzle donations and interaction.​
What We Do
Puzzle Drives
We host puzzle drives for kids with autism and seniors in nursing homes, providing them with puzzles and games to help them have fun and improve their cognitive and fine motor skills.
Regular Visits
We routinely visit kids with autism and seniors to work on puzzles, play games together, listen to their stories, and perform music and dance. Friendships and social connections are essential to human connection and emotional growth.
Customized Gifts
We plan to provide customized puzzles to seniors and autistic kids. These will help encourage puzzle solving and give them a beautiful memento to treasure.
