Autism Society of Southeastern Wisconsin
Improving the Lives of All Affected by Autism
Autism is a journey. You are not alone.
Autism Ball Fundraiser 2011 was our most sucessful event ever! As one of our major fundraisers, it provides many of the dollars to continue our organization’s mission of support, information, and awareness about autism spectrum disorders. We couldn’t do it without the enthusiastic support of members, volunteers, the Board, the staff, donors, sponsors… and if you aren’t already, we’d love for you to get involved, too!

Our silent auction is a big hit at the Ball and a primary source of the funds raised. Gift baskets are very popular – pick a theme and be creative! Popular items that attendees love to bid on include tickets to sports or arts events, sports memorabilia, food and wine baskets, gift certificates to spas, salons, restaurants, and hotel getaway packages.
Are you a business owner or do you work for a company that wants to do good and promote business? Reach 300 Ball attendees as well as the local autism community! Donate an item or an assortment of items and be recognized in our auction booklet and other Ball promotions.
Businesses and individuals may sponsor tables, which include reservations for up to ten guests and sponsorship recognition. Sponsors have table signs and are recognized in our auction book and in our annual report.
The Ball is an elegant, entertaining night of delicious food, great live music, dancing, and exciting silent auctions!
We can always use more help with pre-event projects, picking up donations, auction set-up, registration, staffing of the auction tables and assistance with event wrap-up.
Remember, this is a journey and we are here to support you.
