Our little girl was diagnosed with Autism at the age of 2. She is working so hard and we will always be her biggest supporters. As her parents, we are constantly researching and taking every step possible to ensure Mila gets the best care and services possible. Although this continues to be a challenge, we will never give up. This walk is so meaningful to us. We walk FOR HER and so many other people diagnosed with Autism. Mila, you are PERFECT and so loved. We will never let you feel any less.                                 When a flower doesn’t bloom, we fix the environment in which it grows, not the flower!      

It’s only through the dedicated support of people like us that Autism Speaks can continue their vital mission work. Each year, the Autism Speaks Autism Response Team makes direct contact with tens of thousands of individuals looking for advice or guidance and more than one million people access their free nationwide autism services and resources. They continue to partner and support research to improve the lives of people with autism by investing in science that will allow more personalized treatments and therapies. You can find out even more about where your fundraising dollars go at autismspeaks.org/our-work.

Please join me by donating to help me reach my fundraising goal. Together, we have the power to enhance the lives of people with autism and make a meaningful difference. Thanks so much for your support!
