We walk for every parent who has heard the words, "your child has autism". For the those who await those words, and for their children who were never given a choice... We will continue to walk until "those words" are no longer said. Together, we will make a difference and take steps towards a brighter future.
It was 2 years ago that we participated in the Cure Autism Now Walk in Washington DC to raise money for Autism research. This year, my sister & her family have decided to walk again & even though we cannot be there with them, we will be there in spirit! Autism Speaks has combined with Cure Autism Now to run the event, and they are a fantastic organization that provides education, funding for research & awareness to the community. If you'd like to get involved, check them out at http://www.autismspeaks.org/ or feel free to make a donation to our team, 'Connor's Friends & Family' - http://www.walknowforautism.org/c.otJUJ3MPIuE/b.3621223/siteapps/personalpage/ShowPage.aspx?c=otJUJ3MPIuE&b=3621185&sid=4dIDKNPlG7LHJSOrGmH
Thanks again to all those who continue to support us!
