Irvine, CA (November 26, 2025) The Autism Community in Action (TACA) is proud to announce the generous support of Flower Child and the Anrak Charitable Foundation in the launch of their annual year-end fundraising campaign, Your Gift, Their Future. This year’s campaign aims to raise $180,000 to provide families living with autism the education, resources, and hope they need to navigate the autism journey.

On Giving Tuesday, December 2, Flower Child, a full-kitchen, fast-casual restaurant known for its vibrant, health-focused menu, will donate 5% of all sales nationwide, up to $10,000, to support TACA’s mission.

“Our partnership with TACA has allowed us to give back in ways that are meaningful,” said Monica Copeland, Director of Restaurants and Operations. “For over five years, we’ve collaborated to support families across the country. Flower Child customizes our menu to meet different lifestyles and dietary needs, which makes our connection with TACA a natural fit. With 42 locations and continued growth, we’re honored to grow alongside TACA and help strengthen the communities we serve.”

In addition, the Anrak Charitable Foundation, a nonprofit committed to empowering underserved communities, has generously pledged to match every donation, dollar for dollar, up to $35,000.
