Team Ernst & Young is part of the RUN FOR AUTISM Team, which is raising funds for the Organization for Autism Research (OAR). 1 in 36 children in the U.S. is diagnosed with autism. OAR strives to use science to address the social, educational, and treatment concerns of autistic people, parents, autism professionals, and caregivers.

Please consider supporting this cause by making a contribution to my fundraiser. 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.


By supporting 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 for your consideration and support!
