Lift Up Autism: Raising Awareness, Strength, and Support
Autism is not just a diagnosis—it’s a journey. It’s a world of love, challenges, and triumphs that parents, caregivers, and individuals on the spectrum navigate every day. It’s the sleepless nights, the battles for resources, the misunderstood behaviors, and the deep, unconditional love that fuels the fight for a brighter future.
In the U.S., 1 in 36 children is diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Behind every statistic is a family learning to adapt, advocate, and overcome obstacles that many will never fully see or understand. From therapy sessions to school struggles, from sensory sensitivities to communication barriers—every day presents new challenges. But with support, awareness, and compassion, these challenges can be met with hope and resilience.
That’s why we created Lift Up Autism.
This isn’t just a fundraiser—it’s an experience designed to bring our community together to symbolize the struggles and triumphs of autism families through movement. The partner workout represents the weight parents and caregivers carry every day, highlighting the strength, endurance, and determination it takes to lift up a child, a family, and a community affected by autism.
