CAUSE:

Ashley's Autism Heroes (Tax ID# 82-1450464) has been created in honor of Ashley Breen, an adorable and courageous girl with autism. Ashley's parents, Joe and Shiela Breen, know first-hand the financial hardships that are placed on a family raising a child with autism. Costs can include paying for neuropsychological evaluations not covered by insurance, enrolling in a special autism summer camp, copays for home therapy services...the list goes on and on.

Our mission is to provide financial assistance to families raising a child with autism. Families will benefit from funds raised via events sponsored by Ashley's Autism Heroes as well as corporate and private donations. The funds will be given out in the form of direct pay grants to cover expenses related to the care of a child with autism.

EVENT:

Our kickoff fundraiser is a 100 mile walk to be completed by Rick "Duke" Dauphinais in honor of Ashley. The walk will take place at Macdonald Stadium in Malden, MA starting on Thursday, September 21st at 8:00 am and ending Friday, September 22nd at 7:00 pm. It is Duke's goal to finish the walk in 35 hours. We would like to invite families and friends to pledge to walk with Dukeby using the sponsor sheet attached, or just come to the stadium to cheer him on. The event will conclude with a celebration at the Malden Irish American Club on Friday night starting at 6:00 pm. The celebration at the IA will include live entertainment by the band "The Lucky Ones." There will be a $100 lottery drawing, raffle prizes, a 50/50 drawing, cash bar and light refreshments.
