Rock for Autism, hosted by Billy Blues Bar and Grill, made its debut appearance in 2016. Backed by corporate sponsors, donors and attendees, and with help from Jackie Moore, it has become an annual event of live music that runs anywhere from a few hours in the evening to whole day events, all while raising tens of thousands of dollars each year and helping more than 3,500 local area families since 2007. Last year alone we raised $75,000 and provided Fred Meyer Gift cards to 781 families for the winter Holidays.
One of our families sent us a Thank You note that said it all, “It was such an unexpected and beautiful gift, and one that was much needed. We are so grateful!”
Fans of tribute bands, rock bands, punk rock bands, local bands, live music, and good times love this event and even make a point of returning every year. So, whether you haven’t joined us for an event in the past, or are just eager to know about the next event, you should definitely watch for announcements and information about this most Rockin’ Autism Fundraiser benefiting ARROAutism and the Family Holiday Assistance Project.
You can help make a difference in a local family’s holiday this year! Thank you for making a donation!
