Since he was diagnosed with Asperger's Syndrome in 2002, my son (now

14) has been a crusader for research into the causes & treatments of

Autism. I believe that this is mostly because his differences were so

misunderstood for so long.

Since I began selling Tupperware as a way to provide me with more

time with my children, it seemed only natural that now that I have

a " normal " job, that I continue using Tupperware to benefit my kids.

Last year, raised almost $200 in pledges for the Walk, and we

were able to donate an additional $800 thanks to the purchases during

our fundraising drive.

All of my profit from Tupperware sales now through October 31 will be

donated to NAAR/Autism Speaks. That's at least 25% of the sales

before shipping & tax, and could be as much as 35% depending on my

volume of sales each month.

My donation is not just from people who mention Autism, it is from

each & every sale for the next 4 1/2 months.

You may shop securely online at: http://my.tupperware.com/johnbriley

or you can call or email me for a catalog.

In addition, if anyone has a home or silent Tupperware party I will

donate an additional $100 to NAAR/Autism Speaks. If anyone is

interested in supporting or joining our team for the Walk this year,

please see the following letter.

Thanks for your support of Autism research!

Dear Friends and Family,

Autism Speaks is getting ready for its annual signature event, Walk

for Autism Research. I am planning to be a part of that Walk and I am

asking you to join me in raising critically-needed funds for autism

research by making a contribution in support of my Walk.

Autism is a complex brain disorder that often inhibits a person's

ability to communicate, respond to surroundings, or form

relationships with others. First identified more than 50 years ago,

autism is typically diagnosed by the age of two or three. Autism

affects people of all racial, ethnic and socioeconomic backgrounds.

Few disorders are as devastating to a child and his or her family.

While some people with autism are mildly affected, most people with

the condition will require lifelong supervision and care and have

significant language impairments. Many children with autism will

never be able to tell their parents they love them.

Currently, the causes of autism are unknown and there are no specific

medical treatments or cure. Physicians have no blood test or scan

that can definitively diagnose the disorder. As such, the diagnosis

of autism is based solely upon observations of behavior.

Despite increasing national interest and high prevalence, autism

research is one of the lowest funded areas of medical research by

both public and private sources. Whatever you can give will help! I

greatly appreciate your support and will keep you posted on my

progress.

To send a donation:

You may make a check payable to Autism Speaks and mail your check to

me:
