Legacy Ambassador Vernon Gattone

I am passionate about serving as a Legacy Ambassador for Love Serving Autism because I have seen firsthand how racquet sports can transform lives. The organization’s commitment to inclusion and acceptance and opportunity creates meaningful experiences for individuals with autism and their families. Helping participants build confidence, develop social connections and experience the joy of being a part of a supportive community is incredibly rewarding. It is an honor to advocate for a mission that uses sport as a vehicle for empowerment and belonging. 

A time to honor our ambassadors and raise funds and awareness.

The mission of the annual Match Point Gala is to celebrate and honor those nominated as “Legacy Ambassadors.” These are community partners and individuals who have made significant contributions through participation, awareness campaigns, and fundraising.

Their efforts and the funds raised catalyze the development and expansion of Love Serving Autism’s therapeutic programs. These programs create an inclusive and accepting community for neurodiverse individuals, on and off the courts.
