Hey John,

There’s only hours left before World Autism Awareness Day ends—and with it, this 4X Match! This day only comes once a year, but people with autism and their families need support all year long. We’re ready to help whenever and wherever we can.

But we can’t do it without you, John.

Rush your donation before 11:59 PM tonight and see it go FOUR TIMES further, up to $100,000, with help from our generous anonymous donor. Together, we can Redefine Possible for everyone in the autism community!

All the best,

Kelli Seely
Chief Marketing Officer

Subject: It’s World Autism Awareness Day, John!

Dear John,

Today is World Autism Awareness Day, and it couldn’t have come at a more critical time for the autism community. Conversations are taking place in Washington right now that could have profound implications for families that rely on federally-funded programs for support.

As the nation’s largest advocate for people with autism, Autism Speaks will play an important role in helping these families navigate the uncertainty ahead and stay connected with vital support. In fact, our Autism Response Team has already seen an uptick in calls from families in immediate financial distress.

Meeting such massive needs requires massive support to match — and for that, we need you.

Help people with autism and their families weather the challenges thay may lie ahead by making a gift to Autism Speaks this World Autism Awareness Day. Before midnight tonight, your contribution will go 4X FURTHER, up to $100,000, thanks to a 4X MATCH offered by an anonymous donor.

Autism Speaks has served as an essential resource for people with autism and their families for 20 years thanks to the generous support of caring people like you. Much of that support is historically raised during World Autism Awareness Day, and this year is proving to be no different. So if you were waiting for a good time to give, that time is now.

With your support, these programs and more can help Redefine Possible for people with autism and their families. It’s up to us to ensure these crucial services and more are always available when and where they’re needed — regardless of what the future holds.

Do your part this World Autism Awareness Day by making a tax-deductible donation now! Gifts received before MIDNIGHT will be MATCHED FOUR TIMES, up to $100,000, for QUADRUPLE the impact.

Thanks in advance for standing with the autism community in these uncertain times. Allies like you are essential.

All the best,

Keith Wargo
President & CEO
Autism Speaks
