MILESTONES TO STRIKE IT BIG WITH 6TH ANNUAL BOWLING FUNDRAISER
CLEVELAND – Milestones Autism Resources, a local autism organization dedicated to improving the lives of individuals on the autism spectrum, is hosting its 6th annual Strike It Big Bowling Extravaganza presented by Davis Automotive Group to support local families affected by autism. The entire community is invited to attend this family-friendly event, which will take place on Sunday, March 11, from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. at Spins Bowl in Independence, Ohio.
Contributions from the fundraiser will help support Milestones’ free Autism Helpdesk, a service which allows families to contact professional staff for personal guidance, local resources and individualized information at each and every stage of their child’s development.
“Strike It Big for Milestones represents everything the larger Northeast Ohio autism community works to accomplish together: inclusion and support for one another. This family-friendly bowling event provides a no-judgment zone in which children can be themselves,” said Edie Ungar-Shafron, co-chair of Strike It Big.
The fun-filled event will feature face painting, balloon artists, a raffle and more. Here are ways to get involved:
Register to bowl at the event and raise or pay a minimum of $200 as a team to bowl.
Attend as a walk-in for $35 per person the day of the event.
Donate to your favorite team or individual at milestones.everydayhero.do.

In addition to our presenting sponsor Davis Automotive group, Milestones would like to recognize Deloitte, University Hospitals Rainbow Babies & Children's Hospital and Hickman & Lowder Co., L.P.A. as premier sponsors for this event.
