About me!

Hello,

My name is Jessica Evans, and I’m an elementary school teacher with over 12 years of experience working with students of all abilities. Throughout my career, I’ve had the privilege of teaching and supporting children with disabilities, and I’ve seen firsthand the joy, determination, and unique perspectives they bring to the world. Their stories have deeply impacted me and continue to inspire my passion for inclusion and advocacy.

That’s why I’m incredibly excited to be raising money for autism awareness through the Doug Flutie Jr. Foundation for Autism. This foundation provides crucial resources, support, and opportunities for individuals with autism and their families. Every donation will contribute to creating a more inclusive world by promoting awareness and offering life-changing programs.

As part of this journey, I’m also taking on a personal challenge — participating in the Dopey Challenge at Walt Disney World, a 48.6-mile race over four days. It’s a meaningful opportunity to push my own limits while raising funds and awareness for a cause that’s so close to my heart.

Your support means the world to me, and every contribution will make a real difference. Together, we can celebrate the strengths of those with autism, champion inclusion, and create lasting change. Thank you for believing in this mission and for your generosity!

With heartfelt appreciation,
Jessica Evans
