Autism Kickoff Event
Prestonsburg –Highlighted by the unveiling of the new Funding Project video, a fundraising “Kick Off” event was held on Tuesday, November 17 by the Highlands Foundation in support of the Highlands Center for Autism. The event was held at the Mountain Arts Center in Prestonsburg from 5:30 until 7 p.m.
More than 100 guests and officials attended the celebration, fueling high expectations that significant funds will be donated to support the Highlands Center for Autism, which is located on the first floor of a facility adjacent to Highlands Regional Medical Center.
