Autism Cafe Project Working With Project Heart To Launch Products Made By Autistic Individuals

The Autism Café Project is helping autistic individuals to secure an additional income stream with a new project to create products with Project Heart.

Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, December 08, 2017 /PRWIRE.asia/ -- The Autism Café Project worked with Project Heart to create a pilot project for the Annual National Autism Society of Malaysia (NASOM) Walk for Autism on 11th November 2017. Autistic individuals created bracelets and beauty products for auction, and the first products sold out at the event, with great customer feedback. This successful pilot has led to an official collaboration between the two parties, which will make the products available for sale with consistent production.

The creation of this new project achieves three main aims:
– Autistic people can contribute to product preparation and manufacture, helping to provide an additional stream of revenue for people with specialist skills and talents.
– To increase public awareness of the capabilities of autistic people, who are capable of producing high quality craft items and beauty products.
– Increase the independence of autistic people, who gain greater control over their destinies by becoming productive members of society.

The products available are all limited editions, as they are handmade in batches by autistic individuals. The next place people can find these great products will be at the Charity Bazaar at Plaza Arkadia, Desa Parkcity. The event will run on the 10th December 2017 from 11am to 6pm. On the 11th, the ACP will begin selling two products, namely the organic body butter and bracelets.

The event is free to enter, and will feature round-the-clock activities for children, including book readings, clown appearances, balloon art and face-painting.

A spokesperson for the Autism Café Project explained, “We are delighted to be attending the Charity Bazaar, and we are excited to introduce this range of products, which will become a regular feature at our café. Many autistic people are highly skilled in arts and crafts, and their products are second to none. We will be selling the first batch of these new products at the Bazaar, before making them available at our café. We hope this encourages more people than ever to visit, and see what autistic people are really capable of with the right support.”
