The day will be a fun-filled experience with entertainment, refreshments, an autism community resource fair, and much more.  

By raising $100 you will earn your own commemorative Walk Now for Autism t-shirt. 

Letter writing and email campaigns seem to be the most effective fund raising methods! 

The first graders at Torrence Creek Elementary, in Charlotte, NC, have already raised over $1,000 for the Carolinas Walk Now for Autism. This was an lesson on giving back to the community.

GREAT JOB STUDENTS!!

What a wonderful event, have a great time.  It's so important to raise awareness about what autism is and how varied are the effects.  My friend, Adryon, works with autistic kids so I know a little more than I probably would have.  I am going to take my daughter to volunteer on a group day, to play with the kids.  Thanks for the post!

Chris: Thanks for coming by! It seems like there is sooooooo much of this too and like you said it is so varied. My husband has a great nephew that was diagnosed with this. Take care!
