A big hat tip to my friend Christa, who works with autistic children everyday. I asked her for permission to repost her blog post.

April is Autism Awareness month. This blog is dedicated to everyone who is a part of the cause.

John Ondrasik from the band Five for Fighting set up a video contest to raise money for charities. One of the charities that will benefit from this site is AutismSpeaks.com (along with many other charities that are really worth taking a look at). Just by watching these videos, 49 cents will be donated to the charity. Go to What Kind of World Do You Want to watch the videos. The more videos you watch the more money that is raised. So please take some time out of your day and help make a difference.
