My oldest grandson has autism, he loves to work, hes made fun of, they say hes to slow. But I found him to be so kind and loving. I said to him, what do you want to do, he replied I want to work in the church, Do it, I replied. now he has his own apartment.

Paying a disabled person less than minimum wage is a insult and should be frown upon and as a disabled person I’m by myself when fighting what I want

[@shane_gentle]

did you know that it's legal in the US to pay disabled people less than minimum wage?

[@rider3364]

That is why this is a scam

[@norybyelir]

Such amazing people who start these kind of places for people with disabilities to work, Shame the rest of the world can't follow suit.
EDIT. Also the layout of the shop and its contents are impeccable, impressive.
