  Star International Academy raises $1500 to support Blue Hands United, launch a sensory-friendly room at Islamic Center of America

Fundraiser was part of the school’s Autism Awareness Month observation

DEARBORN HEIGHTS, MI - The students of Star International Academy (SIA) have shown their support for autism awareness by raising $1,500 for Blue Hands United, a non-profit organization that supports and provides resources for individuals and families affected by autism and other developmental delays.

"We are proud of our students and their dedication to making a positive impact on the lives of individuals and families affected by autism," said Dr. Ali Bazzi, SIA President and Superintendent of Hamadeh Educational Services. "Their efforts have inspired others to do the same, and we will continue promoting autism awareness and support in our community."

To promote autism awareness, the students created a video informing their peers about autism and sold support bracelets during their lunch periods. They also decorated the school's hallways, bulletin boards, and classroom doors with messages supporting those with autism.

The money raised will be used to establish and run a sensory-friendly room for individuals with autism at the Islamic Center of America, as well as support Blue Hands United's upcoming community events. These events include the Haddix Award for exceptional parents who go above and beyond for their children with special needs, the 6th Annual Autism Awareness Event “Sky's the Limit”, and other events for the community that promote awareness and inclusiveness.
