I’M RUNNING THE 2025 NYC MARATHON FOR AUTISM — JOIN ME!

Hi friends! I’m beyond excited (and a little nervous!) to be running the 2025 New York City Marathon as part of the Organization for Autism Research (OAR) Team, and I need your help to make every mile count!

WHY THIS MATTERS TO ME
This race is personal. My sweet angel nephew was diagnosed with autism, and I’m running in his honor. I want to make sure that individuals and families like mine have access to the support, resources, and research needed to live extraordinary lives. OAR does exactly that — providing funding, education, and assistance to those who need it most.

WHY SUPPORT?
1 in 36 children in the U.S. is diagnosed with autism. By donating to my fundraiser, you’re directly contributing to life-changing programs that make an impact today. Here’s how your donation helps:

$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 study.
