Donate
Donating to Autism Awareness Australia helps us provide information, programs and services that empower people with autism and their families, and promote greater understanding and acceptance.
The right information changes lives
In Australia, the autism prevalence rate is 1 in 70 people.
But, despite being such a widespread condition, there’s an absence of quality, credible and independent information.
That’s just plain wrong.
100% Donor Funded
This site is maintained only because of the generous support of donors. We don’t sell ads or advertorial, and never will.
Direct Impact
95% (or more) of donations go to creating and distributing quality content. We try to keep fundraising costs as low as possible.
Donations Help Many
Every year, thousands of families from all walks of life receive an autism diagnosis. Your donation helps them get the info they need.
Autism information should:
BE CREDIBLE
It’s time to put a stop to myths and misconceptions.
BE OBJECTIVE
Give the truth, not the pitch.
BE AFFORDABLE
It should be free, or as close to free as possible.
BE IN ONE PLACE
No more internet rabbit holes.
BE UP-TO-DATE
Important discoveries need to reach the community.
