Help Julia raise money

For participating in 2022 Vancouver Half Marathon

Why AutismBC moves me...

I am so proud of so many things at AutismBC: what we stand for, the support services we provide, the way our team works together, and the sense of connection and community we build. 

This year, I have decided to run 21km to support our team! 

My birthday wish is to raise $1,000. 

I'd appreciate any size of donation to power me through those 21km and to help our team and community reach new heights!

It's been 8 years since I've run that long...so I need to get training!

Description

Please support me as I participate in the Vancouver Half Marathon Charity Challenge to raise funds for AutismBC — an organization that really matters to me. In British Columbia, 1 in 37 children has an Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) diagnosis and there are approximately 60,000 children, youth, and adults on the spectrum. AutismBC is a grassroots organization founded in 1975 to empower, support, and connect the autism community in BC. Since their humble beginnings, they have grown to become one of the most trusted non-profit organizations for autism in BCYour donation to my page will go towards helping AutismBC provide barrier-free social connections for BC kids, youth and families, workshops that promote supportive, inclusive communities, and information and resource lines that provide current timely information for people across the province. Thank you for supporting me and helping build a more inclusive society where people on the autism spectrum can live their best lives!
