Over 6,500 people gathered at Jacobs Field for the Inaugural Cleveland Walk Now for Autism on Sunday, September 30th, raising over $537,000. Special guests included Cleveland native and famed musician Jim Brickman, who signed autographs for the crowd, and Ronn Richard, President and CEO of the Cleveland Foundation. A personalized video from another famous Cleveland native, actress Patricia Heaton from “Everybody Loves Raymond,” welcomed the walkers and thanked them for their participation.
