Crafters, enthusiasts and women were occupied in the past month, but not how you might think. The groups were galvanized by A.C. Moore Arts & Crafts, Inc. (http://www.acmoore.com) an annual campaign in support of the stamps of Easter Seals and families living with autism.
The staff and clients of A.C. Moore donated more than $ 170,000 to the law of Easter Seals for the campaign of autism contributions checkout in April and may. The effort was part of the community outreach program Moore A.C. "development of a better world".
All the amounts raised support Easter Seals autism services and stay in the same local communities where they were raised, giving thousands of children and adults with autism to essential services access to help them live, learn, work and play.
