Join us on March 6, 2010 for the Fourth Annual
Puzzlethon™!
|
What is a Puzzlethon™? It is a
unique fundraiser created especially for the Connecticut autism
community. It is like a walk-a-thon, except participants raise money by
doing puzzles. |
|
 |
Why puzzles? The puzzle piece is
the symbol of the autism community. Many individuals with autism are good at
puzzles. People with autism can enjoy meaningful social interactions
doing puzzles with non-autistic individuals.
