Daniel Richardson, an administrator and entrepreneur from Warrington, has set himself a cyber challenge to raise funds for The National Autistic Society (NAS), the UK's leading charity for people with autism, their families and carers
Daniel created www.mini-smiles.org, a new, easy to use website where companies and individuals can purchase pixel blocks to advertise other websites. Visitors can simply upload logos and create a link to their websites. Each pixel block costs £5.
From his website, Daniel is aiming to raise a mega £35,000 which will help support NAS services including the Autism Helpline, Advocacy for Education Service, Befriending scheme, Parent to Parent support service and help! programme.
Daniel, who is a triplet, chose to set up www.mini-smiles.org for the NAS, not only to enjoy the virtual challenge but also because one of his brothers has autism.
With an enormous passion for information technology (IT), Daniel has a terrific track history of IT achievements including a grade A in AVCE and grade AA in GNVQ Information Communications Technology.
Daniel said:
"I've organised charity events in the past but nothing quite as ambitious as this! I knew that I wanted to use my IT skills to help raise money online for the NAS. Then I came across a site created by Alex Tew from America. Alex's site is a real inspiration. Setting up my own site has been a great achievement and my way of helping people with autism, their families and carers. Making improvements to my site can sometimes be time-consuming but it's going to be worth it as the money I raise will help support thousands of people with autism to live their lives to full potential by enabling the NAS to continue its crucial work."
David Richards, NAS Director of Fundraising, added:
"We're delighted that Daniel has chosen the NAS as the beneficiary charity of www.mini-smiles.org. We wish Daniel the very best of luck and look forward to seeing his site covered in logos, helping to raising important funds for the NAS."
