A new Kickstarter campaign aims to help kids with autism (孤独症)by providing a necessity for school or travel: a backpack.

The Nesel Pack is a backpack specifically designed for 6-to 12-year-old students with Inspired by existing sensory tools like weighted blankets, the Nesel Pack features pouches(小袋 子)for weights, specially designed straps (带子）that feel like a hug (these are lined with soft material on the inside, so they won't feel rough against users' skint), a security strap in the front of the bag in case the user is entering a danderous situation and the parent would like more control,specially designed hip (髋部）belt which adds a sense of security for the wearer and a very strong base.

The Nesel Pack is. the brainchild of a group of University of Minnesota students, led by senior Martha Pietruszewski. \had hundreds of meetings with parents, doctors, teachers, and leaders in the autism community to learn what exactly we could do to most benefit the students, she wrote on the Kickstarter page.

“Think about walking through the hallways at school, or maybe going to 导 busy airport, ” she added. ” For some, these are normal things. For students with autism, the amount of sensoiy input can be overwhelming and stressfiol.”

Thus, the university students created the Nesel Packto provide a comfortable and durable (持久的）solution to those in need.M They've nearly reached their fundraising goal of $10,000, which will allow them to finalize the design and put in their first production order.

As of now, one Nesel Pack backpack costs $115, which Pietruszewski says is a reflection of its incredible durability, though she added that they aim to reduce the price in the future. They've also partnered with Fraser-a leading orovider of

autism-related services in Minnesota-which will facilitate Nesel Pack donations to kids which is in need.

Pietruszewski said, “With your help, we want to get these bags into the hands of as many students as possible.”
