ORGANIZATION: Autism Speaks Chicago

  • A group opportunity. Invite your friends.
  • 2 people are interested

The success of Autism Speaks Walk depends on the dedication and support of its volunteers. Volunteers assist in many capacities - checking in participants, providing encouragement at water stops and cleaning up after the event which in turn reduces event costs and drives more funds directly to the mission. You can recruit friends, family and coworkers to form a volunteer team!

Volunteer as a Team

Recruit your friends, family and coworkers to form a volunteer team. We'll do our best to assign you to the same area so you can spend the day together. Please remind each member of your team to register online so that we know how many people to plan for. Include your team name in the available field and we will know you are together.

Volunteer as an Individual

Make new friends as you play an integral role in making your city's Autism Speaks Walk event a success.
