It's time for everyone to get their walking shoes ready, and sign up & come out to help support ASGO in our 8th Annual Autism Walk. 100% of the proceeds from the walk stay right here, to help those affected by Autism in our community. Make sure you share this information with your school. For each school who has registered for the walk w/ ASGO beforehand, ASGO cuts a check for 25% of walk proceeds right back to that school after the walk is completed. It's a win win for our schools and our Autism community! Please help spread the word...
