Autism Speaks is an immensely impactful organization that focuses on improving opportunities for those in the autism community, and educating the public about autism.
"Team Up" is their charity racing team, and JordanRunner participated in the 2020 Dopey Challenge with them. We hope to continue our support of Autism Speaks in the future.
