As some of you may know, April is autism awareness month. Further research is critical for diagnosis and treatment. The cause is still unknown but hopefully not for long.

Autism Speaks created a music video of the Five for Fighting song, "World", which features images of autistic children and their families. It is a truly moving video and was the work of Bill Shea.

The band is generously donating $0.49 to Autism Speaks for each time the video is viewed - the funding goes toward research studies to help find a cure. When you have a moment, please visit the link below to watch the video and pass it along to your friends and family. They are aiming for 10,000 hits, but hopefully we can help them to surpass this goal.

It takes 3 minutes of your time to be a part of something wonderful.
