Today, over 70 million children and adults are affected by autism. Each of them, have unique strengths, challenges and potential. Autism Speaks will be there for them. You and I can be too.

Jaxon was diagnosed when he was only 19 months old. Jax has been in 6 different therapies since his diagnosis and he has made huge huge strides in communication, socialization and his overall life. This year we would like to try to help the whole autism association by raising money and walking for Jaxon!

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 Jax reach my fundraising goal. Together, we have the power to enhance the lives of people with autism like Jax and make a meaningful difference. We thank you so much for your support!
