Diego is a vibrant and friendly young boy who lights up any room with his energy. Currently, he receives 20 hours of therapy each week to help him navigate the challenges of autism, including managing tantrums, socialization, and other essential skills. Due to sensory sensitivities, he occasionally experiences sudden tears, head banging, or hitting, which are behaviors he struggles to control. Diego's family is deeply committed to supporting him and is working closely with his support team to help him thrive and better integrate into society. As young parents, they are undertaking specialized training to equip themselves with the tools needed to raise a child with a disability. Despite their low income and the challenges they face, they are determined to provide Diego with the best care possible. At his core, Diego is a charming young man who loves to share hugs, play with puzzles, stack toys, enjoy trips to the playground, and savor his favorite fruits. With continued support and understanding, Diego and his family are on a journey filled with hope and love, striving for a brighter future together.

Diego currently lacks a suitable coat to protect him from the cold, which puts his comfort and health at risk during these chilly months. A warm coat would not only keep him cozy but also let him enjoy outdoor activities without worrying about the cold. Providing him with a warm coat would significantly improve his well-being and allow him to fully engage with the world around him.
