When you have a neurotypical child, you feel reasonably assured that class participation and decent study habits will result in good grades. These kids have close friends. They get invited to participate in social things like dances and weekend gatherings. They make the teams, auditions organizations and clubs. But when you have a child with certain differences, this is often not the case. Learning may take longer, both academically and socially. Despite their tremendous effo...rts, results are often a fraction of their peers and social acceptance is fleeting, setting them up for painful comparisons and bitter frustration. Instead of a fun and fulfilling experience, school can become a breeding ground for depression and anxiety, and assignments a battle ground at home. It is exhausting for parent and child alike. This is the week of SPED (Special Education), Autism, Dyslexia, and ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder) awareness. For all the children who struggle every day to succeed in a world that does not recognize their gifts and talents, and for those who are walking beside them, please let this be a gentle reminder to be kind and accepting of ALL people. Recognize that the "playing field" is not always a level surface. Children who learn differently are not weird. They are merely gifted in ways that our society does not value enough. Yet they want what everyone else wants: To be accepted!! If you choose, please copy and paste this in honor of all children who are deemed "different". Our world would be far less beautiful without them.

News about our Gospel for Asia Canada class action. https://www.cbc.ca//gospel-for-asia-class-action-fraud-1.5

McKiggan Hebert Lawyers has been retained to pursue a class action against Gospel for Asia World (formerly known as Gospel for Asia Canada) for the return of charitable donations allegedly collected through misrepresentation and fraud. The claim alleges that thousands of well-intentioned Canadians were duped into collectively donating tens of millions of dollars to an international fundraising syndicate operating in Canada known by a variety of names including as Gospel for A...sia, Gospel for Asia Canada, GFA, and, later, as GFA World. The pleadings allege that donors were convinced by the representations of the Defendants that 100% of donations designated for use in the field would be used in the field, and that their donations would be used for specific charitable purposes to help the poorest of the poor in India. Instead, the funds were converted by the Defendants for their own use, including for the construction of a 350 acre compound and personal residence in Texas, USA. In this action, the Canadian donors seek to recover donations that were allegedly collected through fraud or misrepresentation.

We are so proud to be partnering with the Canadian Paraplegic Association for this fun (and tasty) fundraiser. We hope you will join us to support a great cause. #wineandchocolate
