TAMPA (WFLA) – It’s back! WFLA News Channel 8 and WTTA Great 38 is proud to partner with the Tampa Bay Autism Speaks organization to help spread awareness and acceptance of those with autism and their loved ones.
Our strength as a community is powered by love and built on the commitment of individuals like you. Your fundraising efforts will help Autism Speaks promote solutions across the spectrum and throughout the lifespan. Proceeds from Tampa Bay’s 16th annual walk will help fuel innovative research and make connections to critical lifelong supports and services.
Join our WFLA News Channel 8 and WTTA Great 38 team as we raise funds to have a voice with legislators, to have access to the information and resources we need, to support research and medical discovery and to help fund local services through the mission of Autism Speaks. Together, we can accomplish amazing things for people living with autism.
On Tampa Bay Autism Speaks Walk Day, Oct. 9th, WFLA and Tampa Hoy’s Meteorologist Heather Melendez will serve as the official emcee. Her involvement dates back to volunteering at Step-By-Step Autism Camp in Santa Monica, CA. Heather is thrilled to be a part of this amazing cause. You can be a part of it too!
