On June 19th Believe NYC and the Broadway community came together for a fantastic one night only fundraiser to benefit Autism Speaks! Broadway soloists as well as performers from around the country performed to inspire compassion, kindness, and understanding. They were joined by talented young artists from Cranford who auditioned for the opportunity to perform on a Broadway stage and support this amazing cause.
Autism Speaks has grown into the world’s leading autism science and advocacy organization, dedicated to funding research into causes, prevention, treatments and a cure for autism; increasing awareness of autism spectrum disorders; and advocating for the needs of individuals with autism and their families. This event is a unique way for performing arts students to give their time and talent to an organization that has positively impacted the world community.
