It is our collective belief that everyone should have the opportunity to “Live Well & Do Well”. With this value, we created an event where we can share with you a world of diversity, artistry, and hope. Because, until there’s a cure, we must create a world where children with autism can express, create, and thrive. A place where they can fly.
Why April 3rd? Besides being Autism Awareness Month, April marks the HBO Global Premiere (March 25th) and month-long run of the award winning documentary, AUTISM : THE MUSIC AL, short-listed film for the 2007 Academy Awards. This documentary chronicles a Miracle Project musical production from initial ideas to final curtain call, and features original songs that are incorporated into FLY: Into the World of Autism (the film’s accompanying CD also launching in April) that carries songs with positive messages for this challenging and often misunderstood epidemic that is Autism. Upbeat and inspirational, the album features the special children from the film blending their voices with recording artist Superstars, including Stephen Stills, Jason Alexander and Gary Cole. |

Autism continues to be in the headlines with its rapidly rising statistics: today, 1 in 150 children are diagnosed with autism, and as much as 1 in 94 boys-- one child every 20 minutes. Increasingly, the media is addressing this subject in leading magazines and networks. FLY will maximize media coverage with our celebrity participation and the many unique stories of its participants. A magazine partner will cross-promote the event and the message.
To optimize awareness and funding potential, FLY is generating celebrity and media attention. Set in centrally located Culver City, it will attract many high profile actors and musicians who are sympathetic and activists for the cause. The event is designed to bring in 400-500 guests, with a premium VIP pre-event to honor some long term supporters and note-worthy musicians and celebrity guests. |

WHY WE NEED YOU! The Miracle Projects, LLC (parent company of The Miracle Project) seeks purpose minded corporate and individual sponsors to generously donate to this original event. Our unique event is a rare chance for corporations and individuals to reflect their core values in a highly publicized event while feeling good about giving back. There is no cure for autism, so until there is, THE MIR ACLE PROJECT brings light and life to the lives of the kids, their families and communities. We believe that it takes different
people to make a real difference.
The initial goal is to fund THE MIR ACLE PROJECT for another year, and onward. As the HBO airing reaches its 30 million subscribers, THE MIR ACLE PROJECT will be called upon by communities everywhere for trainings and curriculums. This program is exponentially expanding and the levels of sponsorships can vary. The possibilities are limitless. You provide the wings, and they will FLY. |
