"You think I am paying attention to what you are saying but really I am just staring at you and thinking about pancakes" -- Someone very smart
The Autism Society Philippines Wednesday "PweDay" aims to provide enrichment for teens and adults with autism who are not currently enrolled in schools. ASP PweDays will offer opportunities to learn new skills, to socialize with non-family members and to have fun.

| PweDay Pancake Making |
On June 22, Wednesday, from 2pm to 5pm, we will be conducting a class on Pancake Making. This informal class will also teach the PWAs on proper food hygiene, simple pancake preparation, and presentation. Participants must bring their own hair net, apron, and closed shoes (no slippers or sandals please).
We would like to foster independence among our participants during the class. But if needed, a maximum of one (1) companion per PWA will be allowed in the training room.
"Adults with autism who are no longer in school end up in the fringes of society." Mona Magno-Veluz, ASP National President shares, "ASP is deeply invested in building a society where a individuals with autism be the best of their potentials -- self-reliant, independent, productive and socially-accepted members of the community -- no matter where they are on the spectrum. By keeping PWAs active and engaged outside the home, we are also training the society to be more aware of what autism is, to be more appreciative of their gifts and to be more accommodating of their deficits."
