Families can enjoy a fun evening out and benefit Autism Speaks through the month of June. Every Monday in June from 4pm – 11pm, all Beef O'Brady's restaurants in Lee and Collier counties will donate 10% of all food sales to Autism Speaks.

"1 in 150 individuals is diagnosed with autism. Beef O'Brady's supports Autism Speaks and their mission of increasing awareness, funding research and advocating for the needs of affected families" said James MacDonald, Regional Franchise Consultant for Beef O'Brady's.

Beef O'Brady's is best known for Buffalo-style chicken wings and has a moderately priced kid's menu and video games.

About Autism:

Autism is a complex neurobiological disorder that typically lasts throughout a person's lifetime. Today, 1 in 150 individuals is diagnosed with autism, making it more common than pediatric cancer, diabetes, and AIDS combined. It occurs in all racial, ethnic, and social groups and is four times more likely to strike boys than girls. Autism impairs a person's ability to communicate and relate to others. It is also associated with rigid routines and repetitive behaviors, such as obsessively arranging objects or following very specific routines. Symptoms can range from very mild to quite severe.

About Autism Speaks:

Autism Speaks is dedicated to increasing awareness of autism spectrum disorders, to funding research into the causes, prevention, treatments and cure for autism, and to advocating for the needs of affected families.
