Hi everyone, Sarena here, your go-to professional pin trader at Pin Hive. I’m excited to announce my participation in the runDisney 10k this January to raise funds for Doug’s Foundation for Autism. Our goal is $700, and we’ll be contributing by donating proceeds from reserved pins during our live shows. Thank you to all our supporters on Whatnot, Disney enthusiasts, and the broader community. Your generosity means the world to us and to those we’re helping!

I am excited to run for Doug Flutie’s Foundation for Autism for the second year in a row. Last year, I ran to support my stepsister Olivia, who has Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). This year, I am proud to run for both Olivia and John, a fellow professional pin trader and show host on Whatnot, who also has ASD. Autism affects 1 in 54 children in the U.S. and presents challenges in social interaction, communication, and behavior. The Doug Flutie Foundation is dedicated to helping individuals with autism live life to the fullest, providing resources, support, and advocacy. By running for Olivia and John, I hope to bring attention to the foundation’s important work and the positive impact it has on the autism community. Your support can make a significant difference.

That's a GREAT question and I’m glad you asked. The Doug Flutie Foundation for Autism is dedicated to helping families affected by autism live life to the fullest. Their mission is to support individuals with autism and their families through providing programs that are designed to help them lead productive lives where they are included, respected, and actively engaged in their communities. By donating to this foundation, you are contributing to a cause that aims to improve the quality of life for people with autism and their families.

Your donation helps fund critical programs that provide educational support, recreational opportunities, and advocacy initiatives. These programs are essential in helping individuals with autism develop skills, build confidence, and achieve greater independence. Your generosity ensures that families have access to the resources they need to thrive. By supporting the Doug Flutie Foundation, you are making a tangible difference in the lives of those with autism and helping to create a more inclusive and supportive community.
