Hi! My name is Sandra, and I'm fundraising for OAR's RUN FOR AUTISM to run the 2025 Berlin Marathon. I work as a physical therapist that has been lucky enough to meet a wide variety of people, including individuals impacted by autism. My time working in pediatrics introduced me to kids within the spectrum and their families and I saw the challenges they faced, including exclusion and developmental issues. But with the work done by organizations like this, these individuals and their loved ones can get the support they need to improve their quality of life. So 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! Check out below to see some of the ways 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.
$50,000 fully underwrites an applied research pilot study.
