      Approximately 1 in 59 children are affected by autism, making it the fastest-growing developmental disorder. It is also often associated with other disorders. Autism affects brain development, and if diagnosed early on, those affected can have a better quality of life. That is why Varghese Summersett proudly offers an annual Autism Scholarship to honor a cause near and dear to our hearts. Three members of our legal team have children with disabilities, and to recognize and support families navigating similar challenges, we offer this annual scholarship.

      This scholarship is intended to assist a deserving autistic child who needs financial aid for educational or recreational opportunities. The award may be used towards a camp, tutoring, education, or other tools to help the student progress and live a fulfilling, happy life.
