Experience the power of thousands united by autism at the 11th anniversary San Diego Walk Now for Autism Speaks at Liberty Station of Point Loma, 2640 Historic Decatur Road, San Diego, on Saturday, October 19, 2014.
Powered by volunteers and families with loved ones on the autism spectrum, this fundraising effort generates vital funds for autism research and raises awareness about the increasing prevalence of autism, the fastest-growing serious developmental disorder, and the need for increased research funding to combat this complex disorder.
In 2013, San Diego Walk Now for Autism Speaks hosted 4,000 people and raised $130,109 for autism. Walk Now for Autism Speaks is North America’s largest grassroots autism walk.
Members of the media are invited to attend the event, interview and photograph participants, volunteers and special guests. Registration begins at 8 a.m., the opening ceremony is at 9:30 a.m. and the walk kicks off at 10 a.m.
