Campervan Tees: Raising Money for a Big Dream and a Good Cause

In a special spotlight article as we head back to school, the CADDAC team would like to give special thanks to Antony of Campervan Tees.

At only 8 years old, Antony has cleverly united two of his dreams: to own a camper van by the time he's 18, and to help his dad, who was diagnosed as an adult with ADHD in 2020. 

Antony's family supports his production of tie-dyed clothing - profits go to the camper van fund with 10% going to support the ADHD community.

Everyone has the power to make a difference in someone else's life.

A single act of generosity can have a meaningful impact on the lives of individuals affected by ADHD who turn to CADDAC for support and resources. 

Your tribute gifts to CADDAC create a brighter future for Canadians with ADHD.
