Dear Business Leader,
We are pleased to announce our 8th Annual Pacing 4 Pieces Half Marathon & 5K Run/Walk! The purpose of this race is to raise money, awareness and support for those with autism, and their families, in the Pee Dee. This event will take place at the 100 Block of Dargan Street in Downtown Florence on Saturday, March 14th, 2020. After the race, we will host the PIECE JAM, complete with awards, music, food, Kid Zone and more!
According to the CDC, 1 in every 59 children are diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder. This life-long disability impacts many areas of functioning and daily life for those with ASD and their families.
The mission of All 4 Autism is to increase awareness, resources and support for those of all ages with Autism Spectrum Disorder, and their families, throughout the Pee Dee Region. In April of 2017, we opened the Autism Resource Center of the Pee Dee; the first and only in the region. Our center provides resources, support programs, workshops, referrals and information, with the purpose of improving the lives of those affected by autism. All of our services are free and open to the public.
All proceeds from Pacing 4 Pieces will be used for the Autism Resource Center of the Pee Dee.
Attached are the sponsorship opportunities for Pacing 4 Pieces. In addition to the benefits listed on the attached sheet, all sponsors will receive an invitation to our Annual Donor Appreciation event in May.
All 4 Autism is a true, grassroots organization that was started right here in Florence, SC. All money raised is used to help local families affected by autism. We hope you will take the opportunity to share your brand with our patrons and show your support for our local ASD Families by sponsoring this amazing community event.
In partnership,
Jessica Brown
Executive Director
