Autism Awareness Month Extended

Online, April 7, 2010 (Newswire.com) - RocknBauble.com will support Autism Awareness Month by donating 10 percent of the proceeds from its dazzling Autism Awareness jewelry line to ASGO. We typically donate to ASGO being a member but you can advise your charity or society of choice when purchasing RocknBauble autism jewelry. High quality handmade Autism Awareness bracelets, necklaces, earrings and book thongs are available and being offered through the RocknBauble storefront located on ETSY.com (www.RocknBauble.Etsy.com). This months featured necklace is a handcrafted Dichroic Glass puzzle piece pendant on an 18 in sterling silver box chain. The Puzzle piece measures approx. 3/4 inch x 3/4 inches, and is signed by the artist on the back and includes a hand decorated cotton filled gift box. The necklaces are available with several different designs all unique unto themselves. "I am extremely excited to promote autism awareness with special autism jewelry creations and donations throughout the year to support our autistic community," states Andi Vogel (RocknBauble Jewelry Artist). Jewelry for any awareness color or cause is also available with a percentage of the proceeds going to the cause the particular jewelry piece represents and although we place extra emphasis on Autism this month it is a top priority cause for us all year long. Additionally this year we will have a team in the Autism Society of Greater Orlando's Autism Awareness 5k walk for ASGO on May 8th inside the Orange County Convention Center 's South Concourse.

About ASGO and Autism Awareness Month:
ASGO was founded in 1996 by a group of volunteer parents to better assist families of children and adults with autism in the Central Florida area. Everyone is encouraged to come out to support ASGO and the Central Florida families affected by autism. 100% of the proceeds will stay right in the Central Florida area. The mission or goal of ASGO is that all individuals within the autism spectrum will be provided a lifetime network of opportunities to become fully accepted, included, and actively participating members of our community, through family support, education, and advocacy, and public awareness. They are a wealth of information and support to families of children and adults with autism, offering social opportunities for individuals with autism to be included in the community. (www.asgo.org) The Autism Society has been celebrating National Autism Awareness Month since the 1970s. The United States recognizes April as a special opportunity for everyone to educate the public about autism and issues within the autism community.
