This is the update and plans as of June 17th

Social Network sites:
* Profile up on MySpace (link at my signature). It is not my personal MySpace page, but you can access it through there.
* In process of creating a Facebook Fan Page

Selling:
* In process of creating a CafePress store
* Thinking about selling gel bracelets through website
* Thinking about selling autism and cousin books through Future Horizons through website
* I will sell stuff on occassion on eBay to benefit organization under a business account, not my personal account
* Business PayPal account will be open when I receive the EIN (employer identification number)

Organization
* In process of writing bylaws
* The organization will be incorporated in the state of Illinois (United States) once I receive the fee of US $50.
* I will file IRS tax exemption under Internal Revenue Section 501©(3). Luckly, it can take care of both federal and state Section 501©(3).
* The tenative name is The Autistics and Allies Association
* Website is in construction through Angelfire and will get domain autisticallies.org (along with .com, .net, .biz., .info, in case someone types one by accident and have complete control of domain)

That is the update and plan that I have so far. I will keep you posted on further updates.
Update from August 24, 2008

Sorry for the long update, been working hard on the nonprofit. I do have a request for any artists out there. I do want a logo designed for the nonprofit. Here is the criteria for it:

* I want the name The Autistics and Allies Association with the motto "Support, Love, Acceptance" in the logo

* Multicolored for the diversity of autism

* People for the autistics and allies

* I do accept the infinity sign, I do not accept the puzzle piece

If you have any designs, just PM them to me. Later on, I will have a poll as to which one will be used. The winner will later sign a release form allowing the registration and use of the design.
