As many of you know, a dream of mine has been to run the New York Marathon, and I'm thrilled to say that I'll be running in 2024 not just for personal achievement, but also to support Autism Research.

Please consider contributing to my donation page. Every donation, no matter the size, will impact countless lives, spreading awareness and fostering support for this important cause. Your support means the world to me and to all those who benefit from the OAR. Thank you for being a part of my journey!


WHY RUN FOR AUTISM?
1 in 36 children in the U.S. is diagnosed with autism. By joining the RUN FOR AUTISM team, you’re supporting OAR’s mission to fund research and resources that help people with autism and their families today.


Here are some of the ways that OAR uses the funds raised by the RUN FOR AUTISM team:

$10 provides a Curriculum in a Box professional development set to general education teachers.
$25 provides 15 copies of A Guide to Safety to families and first responders.
$100 provides the Kit for Kids peer education resource to an entire elementary or middle school.
$150 provides 100 copies of a Life Journey through Autism guidebook sent to a community support group or military installation.
$1,000 provides a research grant for a graduate student studying autism.
$3,000 provides a scholarship for a student with autism to attend college.
$50,000 fully underwrites an applied research pilot study.
