Lace up your sneakers and get ready to hit the pavement as we kick off the 2nd annual BridgeTogether Foundation 5K and raise funds for summer programming for autistic children. With a growing need to have accessibility to inclusive and supported summer camps, your participation in this event will help us bridge the gap in offerings for neurodivergent children to learn and have fun on their summer breaks in the form of mini camps with their Bridge-Buddies.
