The nonprofit and debt solution company are raffling a two-year car lease to help fund the cost of a full-time nurse for autistic children

FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla., Sept. 29, 2026 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — You can drive a brand-new Hyundai Kona SUV for two years, while helping a South Florida charter school for autistic students. Or you can get paid the value of the lease in cash: $11,000.

Either way, you’ll support the charity Give Me A Voice. Debt.com is helping the nonprofit raise money for a very important and specific cause: Covering the salary of a full-time nurse at The Learning Center, a tuition-free autism school in Palm Beach Gardens.

The nation’s premier debt solutions company secured the SUV lease and donated it to Give Me A Voice. Now through Oct 16, you can buy raffle tickets for $10 apiece by going to the Give Me A Voice raffle page.

Give Me A Voice was founded in 2023 by Cathy Sharp, a mother of an autistic child who worked for eight years at one of the companies that would become part of the Debt.com family.

“You want your child to learn, grow and become more independent, but above everything else, you need to know they are safe,” Sharp says. “Having a full-time nurse means there is someone who can respond when a child has a medical need. For a parent, that peace of mind is invaluable.”

For Debt.com president Don Silvestri, supporting Sharp’s efforts is also invaluable.

“When someone who’s been part of your family for so many years finds a way to turn their own experience into something that can help others, you show up for them,” Silvestri says. “Donating this car lease is our way of showing up — for Cathy, for Give Me A Voice, and for autism families throughout South Florida who deserve to know that someone is there when life happens.”
