Isabella's Story Wings of Hope Massachusetts

	Isabella's Story Dear Michael, I am writing to thank you and your foundation for the wonderful opportunity granted to my daughter, Isabella. Isabella is six years old and she was diagnosed with autism at age 3. She has always been fascinated by the water but never had the opportunity to swim on a regular basis with 1:1 support. Isabella began her private swim lessons earlier this year. This experience, made possible by your kind generosity, has made an enormous difference in her life. She looks forward to swimming all week long and is proud of her achievement. When she first began her lessons with Charlie, she could not swim at all and was very overwhelmed. Now she is swimming short distances independently and is showing so much confidence! Thank you for giving my daughter a safe and healthy recreational opportunity. Swimming is such an important skill and it gives me greater peace of mind to know that Isabella can achieve in this. With deep thanks and best wishes, Dawn P. - Massachusetts
