Throughout the month of April, TAO Group venues across America (New York, Los Angeles, Las Vegas) are offering “blue-themed” food and drink items, contributing 10% of the proceeds to support charitable organizations: Autism Speaks, Eden II Programs, among others.

“We are thrilled to once again come together as an organization to provide support and raise awareness around World Autism Awareness Month,” said Ralph Scamardella, TAO Group Partner and Chef. “As we continue to advocate for the improved quality of life for children and adults with autism, TAO Cares proudly looks for ways to give back to the communities that inspire us. Our month-long mission for World Autism Awareness Month is a company-wide effort and I am so proud that we continue to come together for our third consecutive year to shed light on a great cause.”
