More than a year it has been since the Pandemic, and we are here in 2021 with more than 30K racers racing through the streets of Chicago. I have been humbled and inspired by people who have overcome challenges, changed perspectives and achieved new heights.

Rhea Alathur is one such individual who has achieved new heights and showcases anything is possible. As we race through the streets of Chicago, we hope many others will be inspired to cheer and support wonderful people like Rheas of the Future.

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

WHY RUN FOR AUTISM?

$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.
