The Make-A-Wish Foundation is the nation's largest wish-granting organization.
Since 1980, the Make-A-Wish Foundation has given hope, strength and joy to children with life-threatening medical conditions.
From their humble beginnings with one boy's wish to be a police officer, they've evolved into an organization that grants a child's wish
in the U.S. every 40 minutes. We feel that the Make-A-Wish Foundation embodies UniqWear's mission of putting a smile on the world, one person at a time.

Autism affects 1 in 110 children (1 in 70 Boys). Autism is an urgent and growing public health crisis that affects most individuals across their lifespan and demands a commensurate level of action. Autism Speaks was founded in February 2005 by Bob and Suzanne Wright, grandparents of a child with autism.
Since then, Autism Speaks has grown into the nation's largest autism science and advocacy organization,
dedicated to funding research into the causes, prevention, treatments and a cure for autism;
increasing awareness of autism spectrum disorders; and advocating for the needs of individuals
with autism and their families.
The Meals On Wheels Association of America is the oldest and largest national organization composed of and
representing local, community-based Senior Nutrition Programs in all 50 U.S. states, as well as the U.S. Territories.
These local programs are our MOWAA Members.
All told, there are some 5,000 local Senior Nutrition Programs in the United States.
These programs provide well over one million meals to seniors who need them each day.
Some programs serve meals at congregate locations like senior centers, some programs deliver meals directly to the homes of seniors
whose mobility is limited, and many programs provide both services.
We support the Save Darfur Coalition, a this worthy cause with the goal
of helping prevent further atrocities resulting from the genocide in Darfur, Sudan.
In early 2003, war broke out in Darfur, Sudan. The Janjaweed militias, backed by the Government of Sudan have killed thousands of people. They destroyed their crops and poisoned their water. Now they are preventing life-saving medicine and food from reaching civilians. IT IS GENOCIDE. 130 countries including the United States signed an International Convention committing them to act and prevent genocide anywhere in the world. The problem is nobody wants to respond. Meanwhile, 400,000 people have died. 1,000 every day. Soon, the number can mount to one million. please spread the word, and make a difference. Lets put pressure on the United States government to declare Genocide in Darfur, and to make the first steps in doing what they promised to do.. To see how you can help visit
