Follow the Spectrum Raises $5,000 for School of Hope Autism School’s Expansion
FAYETTEVILLE, NC — At the 10th Annual Spring Festival on May 4, 2024, Follow the Spectrum donated $5,000 to The School of Hope in downtown Fayetteville, aiding their expansion to include a gym and life center for autistic students. Founded seven years ago by Amy and Rob Sparks, the school has grown from five students to over 60, providing a supportive, inclusive environment. Amy Sparks shared that their son’s passing inspired the creation of the school. The funds were raised during Follow the Spectrum’s inaugural autism awareness event on April 20, 2024, which featured educational booths, interactive games, and live music.
