AQtion for Autism Day | 17 April 2025

April is Autism Month

April is Autism Month, and while you can fundraise for AQ on any day, AQtion for Autism Day is a national day for the community to unite in solidarity. Host a free dress day at your school to show your true colours and make an impact this April. 

October 2024

10k or 10-Your-Way

Each year, AQ hosts an annual, state-wide exercise and fundraising initiative. Set a challenge for your school to complete throughout October and create a team. You can even host an internal competition for the student, staff member or team member who raises the most funds!
