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!
Come join for a night of frivolity & camaraderie at the Lucky Lab NW
Enjoy the wide selection of both premium and domestic beers and top shelf
spirits while doing something good for your fellow man. Honestly, imbibing
never felt this good.
Suggested Donation: $20.00 includes a drink ticket! Plus, they'll be fantastic raffle prizes and a Silent auction - are you feeing lucky???
We'll be in NYC, Boston, Chicago, Denver, San Francisco, Seattle and San Diego as well this summer. The kick-off event is always a blast and we look forward to seeing you there!

The Global Autism Project is a non-profit organization that works with children with autism in developing countries. In the United States, a child is diagnosed with autism every 20 minutes. In developing countries, we have no way of knowing the national situations. Dr. Eben Badoe is one of only thirty pediatricians in Ghana, a country of 19.4 million people. He is the only one diagnosing autism. He recently told us, “right now, I diagnose children and then I lose them in a way.” The Global Autism Project is working hard to change this. We bring research-proven methodologies of autism intervention to developing countries. A commitment to a balance of scientifically sound interventions and cultural sensitivity is integral to our work.
