See Beneath, Inc. is a start-up non-profit company dedicated to producing educational tools for young autistic kids. It is the inspiration of three creative people: Casey Hoffman, Gerin Gaskin, and Jim Turner. Casey and Gerin are early childhood Interventionists and Jim is an artist. They saw a need and they went for it.
I admire them. I support them. I believe in them. I am going to put my money behind them by giving generously to their Kickstarter Project. I am requesting that you GIVE what you can afford.
Raising funds to offset the costs of producing their first DVD and to continue producing more episodes in the Aiko & Egor animated series is a big challenge. Casey and Gerin have spent 3 years, countless hours a week, sitting across from 2-3 year old kids with different degrees of attention deficits. As you can imagine, this work requires incredible patience and specific skills.
After full days of driving all over San Diego County to these kid's homes, interacting with frustrated parents, and making tiny, incremental progress at connecting with these toddlers, Casey and Gerin have also spent a year and a half of their evenings and weekends with a team of writers and animators producing the Pilot Episode of Aiko & Egor.
When you watch their first video, remember the simple goals of the creators: to grab and hold the attention of a young child with Autism and to maintain that connection while teaching core skills. Stop, look and listen is natural for a normal child; but not for kids with complicated attention deficit disorders.
Their research is supporting their work. The kids are mesmerized by "Aiko & Egor" and their undersea friends. The lessons are being communicated. It is the beginning of a series of DVD's that families can watch together while Mom and Dad, and brother and sister, can be part of a transformation.
Many of us have learned the importance of "see-ing beneath" the surface of human situations to uncover solutions. The name of Casey, Gerin, and Jim's new non-profit corporation clearly states the truth about their intention. They know that behind the veil of autism syndrome is a child waiting to be discovered.
Please help them help Autistic kids and their parents. Thanks!
