It's a closely guarded secret.

if you go to "full editor" you can fix your title. It is for a worthy cause, after all.

Which charity is the money going toward?

Thanks B B

Just wanted to make sure it was not related to Autism Speaks. As a community member with Aspergers, I refuse to donate to them, as they do not, in fact, lets those with Autism, speak for themselves.

While I don't know the politics of this organization, or how much self representation they allow for, at least they are not wasting time on the vaccination non-link.

For those interested in learning and or helping more, I also highly recommend http://grasp.org/ an organization, that last I checked was run entirely by people on the Autism Spectrum.

Nothing was more controversial than the theory that vaccines could be causing autism, though several studies showed no connection. Yet, Autism Speaks kept funding research evaluating a possible link. By 2009, it first chief executive had enough. Alison Singer, the mother of a daughter with autism, resigned from the charity. Her departure was precipitated by her decision as an IACC member to vote against more funding for studies on vaccine safety. “We had a disagreement about scientific research,” Singer tells The Daily Beast. “[Autism Speaks] felt in their heart vaccines were the cause, despite dozens of studies. When you start talking about what you believe and not what data shows, you’re talking about religion and not science.”

That same year, Singer founded the Autism Science Foundation, a nonprofit that explicitly states in its mission statement that “Vaccines save lives; they do not cause autism.”

So, there you go.

And while I'm being helpful:

Compared to other autism nonprofits, Autism Speaks spends a smaller percentage of its revenue on programming. A comparison of 2012 income tax forms found through the Urban Institute shows 70.9 percent of Autism Speaks’ revenue is devoted to program expenses, in comparison to 79.8 percent of the Autistics Self-Advocacy Network’s and 91.5 percent of the Autism Science Foundation’s. Autism Speaks declined to comment on its financial matters.

It ended at 7pm EST, with the final total coming out to $16,160! This means good ol' Daeron will be parting ways with his beard, ending a close, 15-year relationship and exposing the masses to his naked face.

I cannot WAIT to see Phil's reaction to Daerons naked head. No Hair, No Beard, not even the Eyebrows will be left standing.
