Mark your calendars for two exciting opportunities to support OAR while connecting with your community and having fun. 

Shop for Good with Kendra Scott – August 16

Join OAR during your back-to-school shopping on Saturday, August 16, from 1:00 to 4:00 p.m. for Shop for Good at the Kendra Scott store, located at 8093U Tysons Corner Center, Tysons, Va. Shop for a treat for yourself or a gift for someone else and benefit OAR’s mission to fund applied autism research and programs that help autistic individuals and their families thrive. Every purchase makes a difference with a portion of your purchase going to OAR. It’s a win-win, thanks to the fine folks at Kendra Scott.

If you can’t attend in person, you can still participate by shopping online or by phone at 703-248-7013. Simply use the give-back code GIVEBACK-JNFYH at checkout between August 15–17 to ensure your purchase supports OAR.
