Hello Everyone:

I never thought I would be saying this. I will be running the 2023 Bank of America Chicago Marathon to raise awareness and funds for individuals with autism. This cause is close to my heart because I run for youngest son, Nicholas and my oldest brother, Sammy.

Nicholas attends a special school in Oconomowoc, Wisconsin. He will be 18 years old in December and will transition into the adult program. Sammy resides at Clearbrook, an adult residential facility in Rolling Meadows, Illinois

Autism varies widely in its severity and symptoms; however, every individual on the spectrum deserves support, understanding, and opportunities for growth.

Please help me support by making a contribution to my fundraiser and sharing this page with your family and friends. Every dollar I raise will advance Organization for Autism Research's great cause!


WHY RUN FOR AUTISM?

1 in 36 children in the U.S. is diagnosed with autism. It also affects an estimated 1 in 45 adults.

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.

Thank you very much for your time and support.
