Charity Concerts for Children with Autism

Fundraising concerts for children with autism on the occasion of World Autism Awareness Day.

April 2 is World Autism Awareness Day. Every year, autism organizations around the world celebrate the day with unique fundraising and awareness-raising events. How will you celebrate?
International violist Nguyet Thu, mother of a child with autism, would like to show her support for World Autism Awareness Day by bringing her music and her stories to the public. By this way, she hopes to help children with autism to be completely integrated into our society. The goal of the concert is to give 10 full musical scholarships to ten young talents with autism.
