Autism 5K Run for Funds and Fun!

Run for Autism 5K is one of VIA’s biggest fundraisers of the year. Last year, the fundraiser had 1,200 runners (compared to 800 in 2013) and raised $100,000 for the Virginia Institute of Autism. It has 22 corporate sponsors this year, including Finish Line Sponsor Threepenny Café – more than ever before – and already registered 400 people.
