The Flink Fund

Some people remember the exact moment it clicked. When someone finally said: your brain isn't broken, it's just different. For a generation of students, Dave Flink was that moment.
He built a place where that moment could happen for every student who needed it: The Neurodiversity Alliance. Now, as Dave steps into his next chapter, we want to make sure no student misses their moment.
The Flink Fund is how we say thank you — and how we show up for him the way he showed up for us.





What Your Gift Makes Possible
For nearly three decades, Dave Flink has been one of the most tireless and devoted champions for neurodivergent young people. What began as a small, student-led mentorship program is now The Neurodiversity Alliance: a national community where students who learn differently find belonging, find mentors, and find the confidence to lead.
Your gift will directly support scholarships, fellowships, and internships for the next generation of neurodivergent leaders, as well as the mentorship, leadership, and advocacy programs that make this community what it is.
The Flink Fund is how a movement outlasts any one person. And how we make sure Dave's vision doesn't just endure, it grows.
