All this week (from April 2 - 8, 2012), all proceeds from sales of Blue Moon will be donated to
Autism Speaks as part of their
Light It Up Blue campaign!
In celebration of the fifth annual
World Autism Awareness Day on April 2, 2012, Light It Up Blue seeks, "To shine a light on autism by raising awareness in communities across North America."
Additionally, many individual communities, businesses, and even just families will be hosting their own events to raise awareness as well as funds for
Autism Speaks.
Affecting one in every 110 children (and one in every 70 boys), autism prevalence figures continue to grow. Founded in 2005, Autism Speaks is now the United States' largest autism science and advocacy organization. Autism Speaks remains, "Dedicated to funding research into the causes, prevention, treatments and a cure for autism; increasing awareness of autism spectrum disorders; and advocating for the needs of individuals with autism and their families."
With a cause like that, how can you not raise your glass with us?
