Bowling for Autism Dollars: A Bowlathon to Help Autism Families


I am thinking of all my bad bowling puns... let's strike autism, Let's roll over autism.... I could go on but I will "spare"you (sorry, couldn't resist!) - at least my mind is not in the gutter (oops, I did it again!).

This Sunday is the National Autism Association New York Metro Chapter's bowlathon -- donate now -- or even in the days following if you cannot right now! Every dollar helps us help families in the NY Metro area. Your support is MUCH appreciated.

"Bowling for Dollars" To Help National Autism Association NY Metro Chapter

I am so proud to be the Vice President and Treasurer of a not-for-profit, the National Autism Association - NY Metro Chapter, which provides direct support to families whose lives are affected by autism through free parent mentoring, moderated support groups, educational sessions and other activities and outreach. We have operated on a shoestring budget since we were established in March 2008 -- and have still reached many families and provided many great services. However, we want to expand our programs and services and reach even more families -- the need is so great for families of children and adults with autism. To do so, we are having a bowlathon fundraiser on March 21 and I am heading up "Team Henry and Scott" in honor of my own son and one of his best friends, who also is bowling with us.
Any donation in any amount is very much appreciated. Every dollar will go a long way to helping families. Please share this post with your friends and family as well!

Cick on the icon below to go to my donations page for safe and secure online donations. If you prefer to donate "offline" by check or cash, please email me privately.

If you cannot pass up an opportunity to bowl, go to NAA-NYM's FirstGiving homepage to start your own team or join an existing team, and join in our fundraising efforts and come out to have a blast bowling on March 21 at our fun-filled family event.
