On May 19, 2018 I will join the entire Philadelphia Eagles organization and thousands of Philadelphia area residents who will ride, run or walk to raise funds for innovative research and programs to help unlock the mystery of autism. 100% of participant-raised funds will go directly towards autism research and programs at a coalition of leading institutions including Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia, Drexel University and Thomas Jefferson University and Jefferson Health. I need your support to reach my goal and assist those currently affected as well as future generations. This cause is particularly close to my heart because my oldest son is on the autistic spectrum. Over the years we have participated in several research studies of children with autism at CHOP, in order to help find answers and/or correlations. Every day is a new day and set with new challenges that as parents of a child with autism I try to navigate as best I can. Every day I try to figure out the best way to support him yet still teach him necessary skills for surviving and interacting in society. Please consider donating. Thank you!
