Running is my passion and I’ve started training for the Disney Dopey Challenge in January! It consists of running 4 races over 4 days for a total of 48.6 “magical miles” This will be a huge personal accomplishment for me!

To make this even more special, I’ve also partnered with Autism Speaks to raise $2,250 for their organization. Donations are tax deductible and go directly to their organization (NOT to me or my race)!

Would you consider donating to help this amazing organization? Every little bit helps!

Autism Speaks is dedicated to promoting solutions, across the spectrum and throughout the lifespan, for the needs of individuals with autism and their families through advocacy and support; increasing understanding and acceptance of autism spectrum disorder; and advancing research into causes and better interventions for autism spectrum disorder and related conditions. They empower people with autism and their families with resources, online tools and information covering the life span.

Here are some examples of your dollars at work:

⭐ $25 can provide training for 7 autistic jobseekers.
⭐ $25 can ensure that a family receives a printed copy of the informative and timely Autism Speaks Tool Kit.
⭐ $50 can cover the cost of Caregiver Skills Training materials for a family.
⭐ $150 can provide 7 families of a newly diagnosed child with a 100-day plan.
⭐ $150 can assist 18 autistic teens who are leaving high school to create a path forward.
