"It is a great honor and privilege to support this meaningful organization with such an important cause," stated Jason Mitchell, N.D., HempFusion President and co-founder. "With over 3.5 million Americans diagnosed with Autism annually, HempFusion welcomes this opportunity to make a difference within our industry and beyond by providing mentorship, products, and donations through this sponsorship," continued Mitchell.
"In addition to our Platinum Sponsorship, we are donating free products to hundreds of families in need each month," added Ian deQueiroz, CEO of HempFusion. "The increased healthcare costs associated with Autism can significantly weigh on families and we are grateful to support the organization."

"We are very excited to have HempFusion as a major contributor and partner for this organization," commented Tom Bohager, Founder, AHA. "An Autism diagnosis can be complex, but helping a child isn't. We are proud to align with HempFusion's natural, superfood approach to address the overall health of the family."
"While CBD gets the headlines," adds Mitchell. "Evidence suggests that CBD works best when used in the presence of other cannabinoids, terpenes, and omegas.1 We are proud that our products are being embraced in the natural foods industry and supported by organizations such as the AHA."
