Toni Braxton and seven-year-old son Diezel filmed a “We Volunteer” public service announcement Monday in New York City. They were supporting the Autism Speaks Foundation. Her son was diagnosed with autism at age three. Braxton also has an eight-year-old son named Denim.
I am glad to have Toni as a spokesperson for autism. I am just glad when I see a reflection of myself in life, on TV, etc. I love the commercial that her and her son are in ( I believe I have seen it several times on BET). The commercial is touching and draws you in to want to know more about autism.
