Handbag Company Supports Helping Hand Program

Marla
Bagolitas is committed to making a difference in the lives of people we touch. That's why we've named our bag supporting autism research MARLA, after the daughter of one of our Consultants, Rachel. This spunky little girl and her family are examples that autism is a big part of so many lives. However, your purchase will help make autism something fewer families have to think about: Bagolitas donates 15% of each MARLA bag sold to the National Autism Association's Helping Hand Program. To learn more about autism, visit the National Autism Association's website. For more information, visit http://www.bagolitas.com/fabric-handbags/285/marla/

Autism spectrum disorders are complex and often difficult to understand for families and professionals alike. The National Autism Association is here to offer information and support to everyone affected by this rapidly growing disorder.

There are numerous theories on the cause of autism including genetics, environmental exposures, and vaccinations. The National Autism Association will provide the most current research and information available, and will help to fund critical research needed to find the cause.

There are many diverse treatments available in biomedical, educational, therapeutic, and dietary fields. The National Autism Association will provide information on each area of treatment and will offer support and networking to help you find the treatment your family needs.

Many families touched by autism face tragedies of various kinds, and they are often magnified by the disability. With help from the autism community and beyond, the National Autism Association will provide needed assistance to as many families as possible.

The National Autism Association strongly believes that there are effective treatments for autism spectrum disorders as well as a long awaited cure for the millions of families affected. Please join us on our journey of help, hope, and healing. Together, anything's possible.
