Hi friends, I've applied for the NYC Marathon nine times and unfortunately I've never gotten in! After feeling sorry for myself for a minute I decided that I wanted to make a difference and run for a charity of my choice.
Thank you so much for donating to help support me in running the NYC marathon and helping to support autism research. Every dollar I raise will advance Organization for Autism Research's cause! The Organization for Autism Research is a #1 ranked charity by Charity Navigator, so you can feel confidant that your money is going to a good place.
>>Did you know that 1 in 44 children in the U.S. is diagnosed with autism?<<
Here are some of the ways that the funds raised by the RUN FOR AUTISM team are dispersed:
- $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.
- $40,000 fully underwrites an applied research pilot study.
Thank you thank you for supporting this great cause!!
