Beachview Dreams Foundation is proud to introduce the Zach Urda Memorial Fund.  Zach was a beloved guest from Northeast Pennsylvania who had autism. He came with his family to Beachview Dreams every year from the very beginning. Zach passed away in the fall of 2017. His family's world was turned upside down and their hearts have been broken. Zach was always a huge advocate for those with autism and was a classroom leader at his autism school. He especially tried to help his younger brother, Nico, and his baby sister, Shaylin, who were also diagnosed with autism. Zach's biggest goal was to prove to the world that autism doesn't make you less, just different.

​

Zach loved Pokemon and Yu-gi-oh. He was an amazing big brother, son, grandson, nephew, and friend.

​

We are honoring Zach's life by giving away a vacation each summer to family with a loved one on the autistic spectrum. Zach loved the beach - especially in Ocean City! He would want another family to feel the joy that he felt on vacation at Beachview Dreams.
