The Paddle for Autism Awareness is the signature fundraising event of the Global Autism Project.  The Global Autism Project works with children with autism in developing countries.  Every summer, in several cities across the country, children with autism kayak (many of them for the first time in their lives) with their friends and families!

There is no cost to participate, although we encourage everyone to fundraise.  You can set up your own fundraising page here.


All funds raised support the work of the Global Autism Project in creating sustainable centers of excellence for individuals with autism worldwide.

The Global Autism Project is a 501(c)3 Non-Profit organization.

All Donations are tax-deductible

Hosted By

Global Autism Project



Founded in 2003, the Global Autism Project is a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization dedicated to bridging the global gap in the resources and understanding of autism.  We are committed to empowering communities worldwide to address the needs of individuals affected by autism through education, outreach, training, and the promotion of acceptance and compassion.

To address the lack of resources and extremely limited understanding of autism that plagues many underserved populations, we partner with autism centers established by local individuals. Our community empowerment model supports systemic change by providing family and community education through workshops and hands-on training.

We believe in embracing the talent and resources of the communities we serve by furnishing them with tools that engender self-reliance, sustainable development, and continued innovation.  Through this comprehensive, bottom-up approach, it is our vision to build a world in which all individuals affected by autism have access to effective services.
