A huge thank you goes out to all of you who played a role in the success of Where the Sidewalk Ends Dinner and Auction!

Through an overwhelming amount of sponsorships, donations and attendees, ASTAR was able to surpass our fundraising goal and raise $260,000 to allow the vast expansion of services for Northwest families affected by autism spectrum disorders.

ASTAR is thankful and proud to announce that during the Raise the Paddle portion of the evening, through cash donations ranging from $50 to $5,000, we were collectively able to raise $96,200!!! This is a remarkable amount and wholly portrays the wide and strong support base that ASTAR has.

Again, thanks to the generosity of donors and attendees alike, we will be able to reach out further in the community to ensure that any Northwest family affected by autism will be served, without prejudice to age, degree of severity, or ability to pay.

Thank you to everyone who made this evening possible. We couldn't have done it without your support.

Sincerely,

Gary Stobbe
Medical Director
