"How to Train Your Dragon" movie taught us that Dragons can be friendly. For Santino, dragons are a passion and also his favorite creatures. He is on a mission to raise awareness about Autism with the help of dragons. Of course he does not have a real dragon but has a natural talent for drawing custom dragons. With the support of his mom Lisa, today Santino not only became confident but is also raising awareness and money for the Center for Autism in Philadelphia. He is indeed setting an example for our community.
