Our story…
I found out I was autistic when I was seventeen and a half, which was a big discovery. It really impacted the way I view myself and the world around me, in a good way. I finally understood, had a word to explain this aspect of who I am.
Since then, I've had many lovely interactions with AutismBC. They shared the game I made in grade twelve, an essay of sorts I wrote last year, and I've so appreciated the groups and events that they run. With all the support they provide to so many folks across the province, well, I really wanted to help support them some too.
I thank you for any help you can provide for my fundraising efforts.
Description
Join our team and help raise funds for AutismBC to support the autism community in BC!
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 small, non-profit and registered charity that encourages the inclusion and acceptance of the entire autism community. We are a tight-knit and nimble organization that values the lived experience of our team and members. We prioritize listening to our members and making decisions that reflect their needs and wants. We are a grassroots organization founded in 1975 to support people on the autism spectrum and their families. Since our humble beginnings, we have grown to become one of the most trusted non-profit organizations for autism in BC. We continue to support autistic individuals by providing parents and communities with knowledge and by engaging with people on the autism spectrum to create stronger, more diverse communities.
Create your own peer-to-peer fundraising page where you can tell your personal story and ask for support. Join our team on run day or run, walk, roll, or ride anywhere in BC on your own route between May 26 & June 26. Funds raised goes to AutismBC to fund programs.
