On the morning of October 7th 2018, I participated in the Autism Speaks walk on the Columbus Commons in downtown Columbus. This is my first year participating in Autism Speaks U at Ohio State and this was not my first time participating in the Autism Speaks walk but, it was my first time volunteering at the walk. The Ohio State chapter of Autism Speaks U has been selling t-shirts to benefit Autism Speaks at the walk for many years now and this year, we sold enough t-shirts to donate more than one thousand dollars to Autism Speaks this year! I have regularly attended the Autism Speaks Walk in Columbus as a participant in the past but, this was my first experience being a volunteer and being behind-the-scenes. I had a great experience at the Autism Speaks Walk 2018!
