The 16th Autism Consciousness Week a huge success! ~ Autism Society Philippines

“Congratulations ASP for a very successful celebration” posted by a follower of ASP in one of its social networking sites. “You’re the only group that can mobilize such number of participants and when you celebrate, its indeed a national celebration with your local chapters initiating their activities in the local areas,” commented a long time observer. “What’s your secret?” he added.

ASP does not have any secret, we just keep on doing the right thing, having a shared vision, working hard as a team, maintaining and expanding our networks, extending our gratitude to volunteers and benefactors, learning from our mistakes, and above all thanking God for walking with us. We did it together!
