Raise money for Organization for Autism Research

The Organization for Autism Research (OAR) is the only autism charity that focuses solely on applied research. Funds raised directly support research and programs that help parents, families, and educators in the autism community on a daily basis.


Why RUN FOR AUTISM?
The RUN FOR AUTISM program raises money for OAR.  By joining the RUN FOR AUTISM - Pittsburgh Team, you're dedicating your miles to autism research and helping fund autism research and resources.


Here are some of the ways that OAR uses the funds raised by the RUN FOR AUTISM team:
$10 - provides a 
Curriculum in a Box professional development sent 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.
