Running a marathon has always been a goal of mine and I am thrilled I am able to raise money for a cause so close to my heart! My little brother Paul was diagnosed with Autism at 2 years old. This diagnosis changed the lives of my family. A great amount of Paul's success and progression is due to organizations like OAR who help people like Paul and families like mine. I am so proud of Paul and my family and am honored to raise money for OAR!

Please help me support by making a contribution to my fundraiser and sharing this page with your family and friends!

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.
