About the Run/Walk
The Superhero Fun-Run and Walk is one of Autism Connections' biggest fundraising and community engagement events, dedicated to supporting autism awareness, acceptance, and inclusion.
Held in a beautiful outdoor setting, this event is a chance to come together and celebrate while making a meaningful impact. Participants pledge to walk or run a set distance and rally support from friends, family, and neighbors through donations. You can join as an individual, form a team with a fun name, or simply sign up on your own.
Individuals, teams, and families who fundraise beyond the registration fee are not expected to pay an additional fee.
Plus, there are prizes for the top individual fundraiser, top fundraising team, best costume, and more!
Whether you're running, walking, or cheering others on, the Superhero Fun-Run and Walk is a fantastic opportunity for community engagement and a fun way to support the autism community!

"We walk for our brave boy Stalen, to celebrate differences, build a more compassionate community, and remind the world that every person—has incredible value just as they are. We also walk to support Autism Connections Fredericton—our way of saying thank you for the programs, resources, and support they’ve provided to our family and community over the years." - Chrystal Venator
