AURORA, Colo. — R2D2 and Harley Quinn coming together to raise money for people with autism? I love the holidays.
This December, Aurora resident Corey Christiansen, along with his family and neighbors, once again teamed up to build a massive holiday light show - all in an effort to raise money for the Autism Society of Colorado. This culminated with a massive"super hero" party on Saturday, when children with special needs were able to celebrate the holidays with many famous Marvel, DC and Star Wars characters .
"I remember that my wife, Monica, was next to me, and I just went over and gave her a hug," he told me, virtually."And I'm like, 'Can you believe that we're doing this in front of our house? And that we've been able to make a difference, for so many people?' It still doesn't feel like real life." For years, Corey was already obsessed with setting up lights for neighbors to enjoy. However, in 2015 and 2016, respectively, Corey's two children were each diagnosed with autism, and, after finding so many resources and new friends from the Autism Society of Colorado, he decided to point his thousands and thousands of lights in their direction.
