Organization for Autism Research
Heather Horner's Fundraising Page
I am excited and honored to be running in the Marine Corps Marathon on Sunday October 27th. Once again I've decided to make those 26.2 miles really meaningful by raising money to help those with a condition that has no cure, Autism. Please consider sponsoring me.
1 in 68 children in the United States is diagnosed with autism. Despite such high prevalence, there is very limited evidence to show which treatment methods are effective. OAR is the only autism organization that focuses solely on applied research. Here are some examples of how your donation will help children with ASD and their families:
- $10 provides a Curriculum in a Box professional development set 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.
- $3,000 provides a scholarship for a student with autism to attend college.
- $30,000 fully underwrites an applied research pilot study.
EVERYONE WHO MAKES A DONATION WILL HAVE THEIR NAME ON MY SHIRT FOR THE WHOLE 26.2 MILES THROUGH THE STREETS OF WASHINGTON DC ON SUNDAY OCTOBER 27th
Thank you for helping me support the Organization for Autism Research, and please pass on this site to anyone who can help.
Lots of love
