Reading, MA &mdash; April 2, 2026 &mdash; SadieLadySecrets.com is proud to present &ldquo;Grill &amp; Give for Autism,&rdquo; a special community fundraising event in honor of World Autism Awareness Day, taking place on Thursday, April 2, 2026, from 4:00 PM to 7:00 PM at Fuddruckers in Reading, MA.
This impactful event will benefit the Teamsters Local 25 Autism Fund, which provides vital support, services, and resources to individuals and families affected by autism. During the event, 20% of all purchases made with the event flyer will be donated directly to the fund.
&ldquo;Grill &amp; Give for Autism&rdquo; is more than just a fundraiser&mdash;it is a celebration of awareness, acceptance, and inclusion. World Autism Awareness Day serves as an opportunity to shine a light on autism spectrum disorder (ASD), promote understanding, and encourage communities to embrace differences. By coming together, events like this help foster compassion, break down barriers, and support individuals with autism in reaching their fullest potential.
Families, friends, and community members are invited to enjoy a night out while making a meaningful difference. Attendees will also have the opportunity to learn about &ldquo;Sadie Lady and the Missing Puzzle Piece&rdquo; by Stephanie Chiulli-Guillemette, a heartfelt children&rsquo;s book that introduces young readers to autism in a way that promotes kindness, empathy, and understanding.
&ldquo;Raising awareness about autism starts with conversations, education, and community support,&rdquo; said Stephanie Chiulli-Guillemette, Executive Director of SadieLadySecrets.com. &ldquo;We are honored to host &lsquo;Grill &amp; Give for Autism&rsquo; as a way to bring people together, celebrate inclusion, and support families who need it most.&rdquo;
SadieLadySecrets.com continues to lead with its mission of inspiring families one adventure at a time through storytelling, events, and partnerships that give back to meaningful causes.

Choose an Austin Prep Education Rooted in Augustinian Values

Austin Preparatory School

Austin Preparatory School, located in Reading, Massachusetts, is an independent Catholic prep school rooted in the Augustinian tradition. Serving students in grades 6 through 12, Austin Prep has cultivated a close-knit learning community since its founding in 1961. Guided by its mission to inspire hearts to unite, minds to inquire, and hands to serve, the school challenges students through a rigorous college preparatory program that includes honors and Advanced Placement courses, personalized instruction, and intentionally small classes. An Austin Prep education is preparation for the journey of life. Beyond academics, the school’s unwritten curriculum – the lived expression of veritas, unitas, and caritas (truth, unity, and love) – forms the heart of its mission. “At Austin Prep, we are on a journey that is life-changing and important,” says Head of School James Hickey, Ph.D. “Our patron, St. Augustine, embarked on a journey for the truth. At our core is an institution on the same journey, committed to exemplary teaching and learning.” Serving grades 6–12 under one roof allows this leading prep school to guide students through every stage of development—academic, social, emotional, physical, and spiritual. Community stands at the center of this experience, nurturing belonging and inspiring students to lead lives of purpose. Austin Prep athletics teams, competing in the New England Preparatory School Athletic Council (NEPSAC), are recognized among the best north of Boston, reflecting the same drive and integrity found in the classroom. Nearly every graduate continues on to a four-year college, prepared not only for success in higher education but for a meaningful life shaped by faith, friendship, and service.
