Host a Fundraising Competition Between Sports Teams

Opposing high school football teams (or any sports teams or clubs) can compete to raise funds for Autism. Sports teams and clubs within the same school can also take on fundraising challenges as this is a great way to rally school spirit for a great cause. Kettle Moraine Lutheran High School’s football team hosts an annual Tackling Autism Together event to raise funds for Autism.
