Hi John,
 Today, during #GivingTuesdayNow, you can make twice the impact for the millions of members of the autism community who need your support more than ever. Thanks to a generous anonymous donor, who is matching all donations up to $25,000 to support families impacted by the coronavirus pandemic, now is your opportunity to double the power of your gift!
Since the COVID-19 crisis upended so many lives earlier this year, our Autism Response Team has seen a major increase in incoming requests for direct assistance speaking with more than 1,000 individuals and families directly to provide support and guidance. We remain here to help, and we are committed to providing for our community’s diverse and evolving needs. Generous, thoughtful donors like you fuel our efforts, and we simply can’t do it without you.
This #GivingTuesdayNow, please consider donating to help us answer the call of the thousands of individuals and families who are turning to Autism Speaks for help right now. This is your opportunity to make DOUBLE the impact for people touched by autism like this concerned grandparent, who was thankful to receive useful information about a new autism diagnosis, as well as helpful COVID-19 resources.
“Thank you so much for your kindness and understanding during our conversation this morning, regarding my 3-year-old autistic grandson. I truly appreciate the very valuable resources and information related to his condition. Please be safe and take care.”
Thanks to selfless donors like you, we can provide information, resources, support and hope for our community during these extraordinarily trying times. If you are able to donate any amount, please remember that every dollar will go twice as far during this #GivingTuesdayNow match.
With deep thanks and appreciation,
Angela Geiger
