A Heartfelt Thanks to the Lundy Legacy Foundation 5.6.2025
At Crossroads Center for Children, we believe in the power of community—and this week, we were deeply moved by an extraordinary act of generosity.
Today we received, unsolicited, a grant from the Lundy Legacy Foundation of The Community Foundation for the Greater Capital Region; what a wonderful surprise! This will help us to continue delivering highly individualized programming to children with autism and their families. This support comes at a time when it’s more important than ever: with autism now affecting 1 in 31 children, the demand for quality, evidence-based services continues to grow.
What makes this gift even more meaningful is the personal connection. We were honored to learn that the grant was recommended by Noreen and Gerry Burch, advocates for children and champions of our mission. Their belief in what we do means the world to us—and to the children whose lives are changed here every day.
At Crossroads, every child we serve receives a program tailored specifically to their needs. Through Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA)—the gold standard in autism education—we help our students make real progress in communication, behavior, motor skills, social development, and daily living. For many of them, Crossroads is the first place where they experience success. Support such as this helps make that possible.
We are excited to share our journey throughout the year and invite our supporters to visit, learn more, and see the impact firsthand. This grant is an investment in the future of our children, and a beacon of hope for families across our region.
From all of us at Crossroads: thank you for believing in our work and walking this path with us.
