Georgia Aquarium Partners with Us to Support HOTS Families!

This season, Horizon Over the Spectrum is grateful to continue building community, connection, and meaningful support for families raising children on the autism spectrum. As we work to expand our monthly sensory-friendly playgroups, parent mentorship program, and inclusive family events, we rely on the generosity of supporters who believe in our mission just as much as we do.

That’s why we are excited to announce a special partnership that brings both joy and opportunity to our year-end fundraiser!

Georgia Aquarium Donates Admission for Two to Support Our Fundraiser Raffle!

The Georgia Aquarium—one of Atlanta’s most treasured attractions—partners with us wo support HOTS families. They have generously donated two complimentary admission tickets to help us raise funds for our programs. These tickets include:

• One-time entry for two guests

• Access to all aquarium galleries

• General-seating for the Dolphin Presentation and Sea Lion Presentation (as availability permits)

• Valid through December 31, 2026, giving families plenty of time to plan a memorable visit

Admission pass for two to Georgia Aquarium, valid until December 31, 2026, offering access to galleries and seating at dolphin and sea lion presentations. Display only document.

This remarkable in-kind donation adds an exciting raffle opportunity to our Krispy Kreme Digital Dozens Fundraiser, which helps fuel the heart of what we do here at HOTS.

How the Fundraiser Works

Every supporter who purchases a $50+ Krispy Kreme digital dozen voucher is automatically entered into our raffle for a chance to win the Georgia Aquarium admission package. Each voucher sold helps us continue providing:

• Provide Christmas gift cards to single moms raising children on the autism spectrum

• Sensory-friendly and inclusive playgroups for children

• Monthly parent support and mentorship

• Community resources for families navigating the autism journey

• Safe, welcoming spaces where families can connect and feel seen

For many families, these programs are lifelines—and your support helps ensure they continue.
