Past Events

In 2018, Mayor Rennie Brantz proclaimed April 21st Autism After 21 Day in Boone asking the community to learn about the needs of this often forgotten population and to support these exceptional adults living in Boone.  LIFE Village will move forward with anticipation of remaining true to our mission with an autism awareness campaign that also celebrates "Autism After 21 Day" in Boone and a goal of securing 100 donors that will commit to $21 a month for one year.  The campaign will officially start on Autism After 21 Day, Tuesday, April 21, and will run through #CovidCantStopGood on Tuesday, May 5.  Funds will go towards our LIFE House initiative.

Thank you to all who came out to the Peter Pedroni Memorial Charity Dinner to Benefit LIFE Village!

On November 15th, LIFE Village held the Peter Pedroni Memorial Charity Dinner to benefit LIFE Village at the Fairway Cafe and Venue in Boone, NC.  Thank you to Liz and Rick Pedroni, owners of Casa Rustica and C/R Catering, for the fabulous food and beautiful venue. Thank you to the sponsors listed below for your generous support.   We also want to thank Lani Aspley, 'Lani Lightfoot', for sharing your beautiful vocals and Dawn Shumate, Light By Dawn, for taking photographs that we will share soon!  Cameron Kempson of Simply Home,  joined us from Asheville to share a success story about a  young lady with autism who used modern technology to live a more independent life.  It takes a community to build a village and we are so grateful that we have such a caring, giving community working hard to give adults with autism and related challenges LIFE with a purpose in the High Country!
