It's Time to Help Kids with ADHD!
We thank everyone that supported Anthony's Way during the past two years!
We continue to make progress and gained momentum in 2025! We are so thankful for all your donations!
Our Vision of impacting the landscape for ADHD and raising kindness to a whole new level remains a focal point for everything that we do. Each step that we have taken has been very PURPOSEFUL!
We have now helped and guided over 60 families to get the care they needed for their child! The really great part is that we have started to Sponsor the care for children directly. Children are being sponsored in the Wilmington NC area and in 2026, we plan to expand and directly sponsor more children and teenagers! We thank our expert team of ADHD Life Coaches, Educational Advocates, Tutors, Nutrition and Wellness experts, Social Skills, College Prep services and therapists who are ready to help!
In 2025, we added ADHD Assessment services. We have found that children may not always receive the best or most complete assessment and this is the most critical part to make sure that the care provided is spot on! We thank Meghan Shapiro and NC based team at A Different Path Mental Wellness for partnering with us!
In 2025, we hired a top marketing firm, Street Cred Communication, to help implement our strategy and build our social media presence. With their help, we launched our YouTube / Podcast channel, "The Way Forward - A Kindness Mission!", to raise awareness and bring top experts to share the most important topics. We also held our first ADHD Summit in October, with over 250 participants.
As we look to 2026, each step in the next 12 months will demonstrate that our seamless Comprehensive Care Model is the best way to take care of Children and Teenagers with ADHD! Additionally, we are launching a major fundraising campaign that will drive our efforts and help us to build an efficient path to helping more children and families.
Our efforts and goals for 2026 will focus on these key areas:
1. Gain more Sponsors around the country that support our efforts of helping kids! Sponsoring organization will be recognized at our events and then with our 1 Million Orange Hearts of Kindness Nationwide campaign - see 3 below.
2. In February, we will hold Anthony's 3rd Nationwide Memorial Walk a Mile for Kindness & ADHD! COME JOIN US in February as we walk a mile, do kind acts and build connection across the country! Let's build on last year's success. Create your Walk Team and community walks where ever you are. For just a $25 donation, you can become part of our movement!
3. In February, we will be launching our 1 Million Orange Hearts of Kindness nationwide campaign. This is our national call-to-action to encourage people to spread kindness, raise awareness, and help fund support for children, teens, and families affected by ADHD. Individuals, either from our social media outreach or from a business, purchases a $5 Orange Heart of Kindness. Would you give just $5 to change a life? $5 to help a child struggling with ADHD, learning challenges, anxiety .... the Spectrum of ADHD challenges? We hope you say YES! This campaign will be driven through all social media outlets and crowd funding. One small action, multiplied by thousands of hearts, creates something extraordinary - a Movement that will have a major impact on helping kids with ADHD!
4. Our Podcast will resume with the intent of bringing the major voices in the ADHD arena to share their insights and best practices to help kids with ADHD and their families! We plan to do our 2nd ADHD Summit in June this year. June is Children's Awareness Month and it is perfect time to focus on children and teenagers!
5. In October, we will hold Anthony's Annual Ride for Kindness. It will be held here in Wilmington and again in Harrisburg, PA. We will also be considering identifying another Harley Davidson franchise location to hold an event.
During the year, we will also be remembering Anthony and his kind way. February 13 was his birthday and it is perfectly timed as Anthony's Walk is during Random Acts of Kindness Week, Feb. 14 to 20. On April 4, we lost our dear son. Our heart will always hurt on this day and we will do some kindness project that will bring some brightness to this day. Life continues but it will never be the same!
Every $ coming in this year will have its place on our Million Orange Heart of Kindness virtual board - follow us, share our movement and together we can see the power of KINDNESS!
Your donations help us to give these wonderful Kids the care they need to really draw out their gifts and talents. Our comprehensive multi-pronged hands-on caring approach is a one-of-a-kind model! Each aspect of our Model has been proven to work for Kids with ADHD and their families. By combining each component into one Caring Model, the benefits will be life changing and we will impact the landscape for those with ADHD.
Our Vision is to Raise Kindness to a Whole New Level! Our Million Orange Heart campaign will help us bring a nationwide Movement to every part of country!
We need EVERYONE'S HELP! THANK YOU for your Kindness and Caring to make Anthony's Way - The Road to Kindness come ALIVE!
