The Montreal edition of the autism fundraiser Walk Now for Autism Speaks will be taking place on Sunday, May 26, 2013, at Uniprix Stadium.

Now in its third edition, the walk raised more than $200,000 to support autism research and family services last year.  It is the largest annual event for Autism Speaks, an organization dedicated to increasing awareness of autism spectrum disorders and fundraising for cause, prevention, and treatment.

The walk is a family-friendly event with numerous activities and games for children including mascots, bouncy castles and face painting.
