EAGLES AUTISM FOUNDATION BELIEVES THAT AUTISM IS AN AREA THAT NEEDS MORE ATTENTION AND FINANCIAL SUPPORT. THE FOUNDATION ORDINARILY HOSTS A ONE DAY EVENT THAT INCLUDES A BIKE RIDE AND A FAMILY-FRIENDLY 5K RUN/WALK THAT BEGINS AND ENDS AT LINCOLN FINANCIAL FIELD IN MAY OF EACH YEAR. DUE TO THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC, THIS EVENT WAS POSTPONED IN 2021 TO 8/21/21, WHICH FELL IN THE 2022 FISCAL YEAR. THE FOUNDATION ALSO HOSTED THE ANNUAL EVENT IN MAY 2022 AND WILL CONTINUE ONE EVENT ANNUALLY FROM HERE ON OUT. THE FOUNDATION UNDERSTANDS THAT IT IS DIFFICULT FOR A SINGLE INSTITUTION TO ADDRESS THE COMPLEX MEDICAL AND SCIENTIFIC ISSUES PRESENTED BY THE CONDITION OF AUTISM, SO THE APPLICATION FOR FUNDING WAS OPEN TO ALL INSTITUTIONS. PROCEEDS GENERATED IN ALL OF FYE 6/30/2022 BENEFITTED DIFFERENT AUTISM PROGRAMS AROUND THE WORLD. COMMUNITY GRANTS AND RESEARCH GRANTS FROM BOTH EVENTS HOSTED IN FY2022 ARE PAYABLE TO THE BENEFICIARIES SELECTED FROM THE RESEARCH REVIEW PANEL.
