Tour de ASD Athletes

ASD Athletes is a 501c3 non-profit organization and we are very excited about our debut to the general public! We need your help as much as possible to spread the word about the cause behind our charity foundation, to promote and support physical activity opportunities for the ASD community. Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) are a brain disorder that affects communication skills, social skills, and learning ability. There is a wide range of athletic ability in this community and our goal is to give everyone the same opportunity to be active by providing a safe and supportive vehicle for reaching their potential.

"We are passionate about bridging the interests, talents and goals of individuals in the Autism community to the strategies and opportunities for developing the skills they need in order to reach their potential."

Lights, Camera, ACTION!

Today, we are having the first of 2 TV spots which will feature our first fund raising event at BoogieDownBaby this Saturday! As we approach April (Autism Awareness Month), the local media are highlighting some of the events and we are proud to be one of them!

Weekend Update: Results from our first week!

This is really exciting. It feels so good to have people support our cause. In our first week, we have added 5 Twitter followers and 14 Facebook fans, plus many others who haven't quite clicked the "become a fan" link yet, but has definitely made it understood that they are. We've gotten a good response to our Boogie Down Baby Event on March 28th to celebrate our debut.
