Like many non-profits, we are always on the lookout for suspicious activity and anyone trying to take advantage of our donors' generosity. To this end, it has recently come to our attention individuals holding themselves out as associated with Autism Speaks have reached out to certain of our donors and partners (by phone and email) requesting payment data or other personal information. These "spoofing" or "impersonation" scams are rampant these days, and we bring this to your attention so you can be vigilant against them. Please keep in mind, we will never attempt to verify your credit card information by mentioning only the last four digits of the credit card number. As always, if you have any concerns at all that a communication is legitimate, or want to report suspicious activity, please do not hesitate to reach out to us anytime at (646) 385-8500, option 4 or DataSupport@AutismSpeaks.org.
We thank you for your assistance and continued support.
In addition to coming together in person to help create a world where all people with autism can reach their full potential, each Walk will retain the fun, remote-participation options introduced last year. Your safety is our priority — and no matter how you choose to participate, your support will be recognized and celebrated. Our community is stronger together, and we can't wait to celebrate one another and the amazing impact we are making together for people with autism and their families. Whether near or far, let's rally together on Walk day!
Join our team! We've been walking with Autism Speaks since their very first walk in Pittsburgh over 20 years ago! Today, PITT OHIO's employees raise money throughout the year and look forward to the big donation on walk day! We know these funds are needed for Autism Speaks to have a voice with legislators, to have access to the information and resources we need, to support research and medical discovery, and to help fund local services through the mission of Autism Speaks. Together, we can accomplish amazing things for people living with autism.
Join the team and begin your fundraising journey today! Set your individual goal at $150 and you’ll be eligible for a Walk Tee Shirt – which, by the way, was purchased from a business that employs people with autism.
