Lara is full of light and sensitivity. Though she doesn’t speak much yet, her heart communicates through music, smiles, and sweet gestures. She’s observant, playful, and deeply empathetic. Her joy is contagious and her presence transforms every space she enters.
What are Lara's favorite activities?She loves music in all its forms: singing, dancing, and exploring instruments like the piano, drums, and maracas. She also enjoys ballet, spinning in circles, and mimicking melodies she hears. Her eyes light up when she connects to rhythm and sound. That’s her safe space.
How would $25,000 impact your family?It would help us access therapies and educational resources to support Lara’s development. We would invest in tools that nurture her unique way of learning, and create a space at home filled with sensory and musical enrichment. It would be life changing for her and for us.
