Flower Child and Anrak Charitable Foundation Team Up with TACA

In a heartwarming effort to support families navigating the autism journey, Flower Child and the Anrak Charitable Foundation have announced their participation in the annual year-end fundraising campaign, Your Gift, Their Future, organized by The Autism Community in Action (TACA). The campaign aims to raise an impressive $180,000, a crucial goal to ensure families affected by autism have access to essential education, resources, and hope.

On December 2, 2025, coinciding with Giving Tuesday, Flower Child will contribute 5% of all nationwide sales, capped at $10,000, to further TACA's mission. This fast-casual restaurant is celebrated for its vibrant, health-conscious menu, which aligns perfectly with the values of TACA. Monica Copeland, Director of Restaurants and Operations at Flower Child, expressed enthusiasm about their longstanding collaboration, emphasizing the restaurant's commitment to giving back meaningfully.

"For over five years, we’ve worked together to make a difference for families across the nation. Our menu caters to diverse lifestyles and dietary needs, reinforcing our partnership with TACA,” said Copeland. With 42 locations and ongoing expansion, Flower Child is proud to deepen its relationship with TACA and contribute to strengthening the communities it serves.

Meanwhile, the Anrak Charitable Foundation, a nonprofit focused on uplifting underserved communities, has stepped up with a pledge to match every donation made during the campaign on a dollar-for-dollar basis, up to $35,000. Corina Jordan, the Coordinator of the Anrak Charitable Foundation, underscored the power of collaboration in effecting meaningful change within the autism community.

"Our partnership with TACA is invaluable. Together, we prove that we can create a significant impact! We are committed to being the difference for families affected by autism,” said Jordan.

The collaboration among Flower Child, the Anrak Charitable Foundation, and TACA embodies the spirit of community support, inspiring hope and providing crucial resources for families coping with autism. Through this fundraising initiative, they aim not only to hit their financial target but also to foster a greater sense of community and understanding among families touched by autism.
