This year World Autism Awareness Week runs from 27th March to 2nd April. During that week on Monday 30th March (Due to inclement weather the skydive has been rearranged for Friday 3rd April) a friend will be hoping to raise both money and awareness for the Nation Autistic Society.
MaFt who runs both New on Netflix UK and MaFt Host will be jumping from a plane wearing a NAS t-shirt. Now before I continue I think there are a few things I should tell you about MaFt.
- MaFt hates heights
- His son Mini-MaFt has autism
- MaFt hates heights
- He runs his local branch of the NAS
- He will probably use a few choice words as he jumps from the plane because MaFt Hates heights!
MaFt has set himself a personal fundraising target of £750 but with his current total standing at £545 I’m sure he could smash that target, this will be split between his local NAS branch (67%) and the main NAS fund (33%)
I would love my readers to help MaFt smash his target by clicking the picture below and sponsoring him please.
The national Autistic Society is a brilliant charity and deserves every penny it can get.
It is a very worthwhile cause and close to our hearts as I have two nephews with autism.
Having a son with Autism too – I’m thrilled your picked this cause 🙂 Not sure I could ever summon up sufficient courage to Sky Dive though!
A fantastic cause and a truly brave thing to do – I’m afraid I would never be able to do such a thing. Wising all involved the best of luck 🙂
Oh is he jumping with his mates? Because he sounds just like the guy my friend’s brother is jumping with. Best of luck to him.
No, he’s just jumping with his Mum.
