NECC 5K Walk/Run for Autism Information

Held annually since 2007, the NECC 5K Walk/Run for Autism brings together NECC students, families, and local community members for a day of food and fun at the Neary Elementary School in Southborough, MA. Participants complete their 5K in the surrounding neighborhoods before returning to the school for a cookout. Since its creation, the event has raised over $2.4 million thanks to participants, generous donors, and sponsors.
