A picture of your night
The Empire State Building Lit Up Blue for Autism Awareness Month
While this is not a picture of my night it will be a picture of tonight New York City time. On the evenings of April 1 and 2, 2011, prominent buildings across North America and the world — including the Empire State Building in New York City and the CN Tower in Toronto, Canada — will turn their lights blue to raise awareness for autism and to commemorate World Autism Awareness Day on Saturday, April 2.
We’re aiming to light the world blue all throughout April — city by city, town by town — by taking action to raise autism awareness in our communities. How cool is this. I can't wait to see pictures. The above I think is a photoshopped pic but who cares. This is what my night is going to be even here in hospital.
You too can light it up blue by wearing blue on April 1 or 2. But the whole of April is autism awareness month. April 8 is Dress Different Day. Click on the link to find out more. Please do your little bit - it all counts.
