Story

Autism isn't just a cause that's important to us—it's a way of life now.

Our son, Ben, was diagnosed with autism by 2 years old. Like many families, our journey began with uncertainty, countless questions, and the search for resources that could help him reach his full potential. Over the years, we've celebrated incredible milestones, overcome challenges we never imagined, and learned that progress often comes one tiny step at a time. Through it all, Ben has inspired us with his present nature, joyful smile, willingness to please, and resilience to manage in a world we simply cannot imagine.  You can read about his story at https://www.stepup2start.com/ben-s-journey.

Ben is only part of why Team Clearview is proud to support Pathfinders for Autism and their annual Run Wild event at the Maryland Zoo.  Clearview Window & Door is driven to giveback and serve.  So we feel very akin to organizations like Pathfinders for Autism. 

Pathfinders sole focus is on helping and the do it through raising quality of life for those with autism.  They sponsor amazing evenings at the Aquarium, sailing adventures, cooking classes, and offer unique life skills support.  Their trusted guidance, education, and resources have directly assisted more than 20,000 individuals across Maryland.  From the moment a family receives a diagnosis through every stage of life, they have programs, resources, and services completely free of charge.

If Ben's journey has taught us anything, it's that it takes a village and no family can navigate autism alone. Every donation—large or small—not only helps our community, but also supports a family searching for answers, hope, and connection.  It's a beautiful thing to be a part of and we hope you will join us in opening doors for autism.

God bless.
