Aspect is privileged to receive support from thousands of individuals and organisations each year. That support may be in the form of gifts of money or gifts of expertise and sometimes both. This support is becoming increasingly important as we expand our services to meet the needs of people with autism and their families.
The money we receive is used to fund such activities as the Building Blocks early intervention service, the Autism Information Line and some of the vital research work we undertake into the effectiveness of our services.
Fundraising income is also used to supplement income from other sources which enable us to resource and expand many of our other services including specialised education, diagnosis and assessment, programs for families and services for adults with autism. The government funding we receive for our education services together with the fees that are charged cover the costs of most salaries and some additional costs. The funds we receive from Parents and Friends groups and other fundraising is used to cover the costs of additional items including new buildings and playgrounds, repairs and maintenance, playground equipment, psychological testing, speech therapy, plus teaching resources and equipment.
