About AutismBC

AutismBC is British Columbia’s first and only autistic-led advocacy organization and registered charity. This neuroaffirming, non-profit organization is led by a team with diverse lived experience as neurodivergent individuals and caregivers, who honour the experiences and voices of AutismBC’s membership in everything they do.

For over 50 years, AutismBC’s mission has been to connect autistic individuals, their families, and allies to connection and community building opportunities, barrier-free resources, and pathways to support.

In British Columbia today, 1 in 30 children between the ages of 6-18 have an autism diagnosis, and the demand for autism services, programs, and support continues to grow. It is estimated that over 180,000 adults and children in BC are on the spectrum.

AutismBC delivers programs, workshops, community-based social activities, and local support from regional resources teams across the province. The organization relies on donations and fundraisers like this raffle each year to fund the programs and services it offers to the 13,000+ members of its community.

Help Make Kids Mighty!

Your support could be the key to the next big breakthrough

BC Children’s is the only hospital in the province devoted exclusively to children. As one of the world’s top-ranked pediatric hospitals, it leads the way in confronting many of the most pressing health challenges facing kids today – from cancer to heart disease and brain health.

They have a secret tool in this quest: an on-site Research Institute. Over 2,000 research professionals tirelessly work to understand the origins of illnesses, develop groundbreaking treatments and move closer to cures. As 70% of researchers are also health care professionals providing care in the hospital, life-changing discoveries can be brought from the laboratory bench straight to a child’s bedside faster and more efficiently.

Your support plays a pivotal role in accelerating the translation of these discoveries. And beyond propelling this work, your contribution also empowers researchers to dream even bigger. Thank you for shaping the future of children’s health care.
