SUMMARY: Evie is a cute and curious five-year-old girl who keeps her parents on their toes. She was born prematurely at 25 weeks and spent 95 days in the NICU. Last year, Evie was diagnosed with autism, and her parents are working tirelessly to get her a service dog. They have raised $11,700 towards their goal of $20,000 through fundraisers and selling t-shirts. The dog could help Evie with night terrors, social interactions, and prevent her from eloping. The family is also raising awareness about autism and promoting kindness and respect towards everyone. Happy Autism Awareness Month.
