PHILADELPHIA (CBS) – Philadelphia Phillies owner John Middleton and his wife, Leigh Middleton, have donated $100,000 to the Eagles Autism Challenge. The Eagles Autism Challenge is a one-day bike ride and family-friendly 5K run/walk that begins and ends at Lincoln Financial Field.
This year’s challenge will be held on Saturday, May 18.
There is also a virtual participant option for those who want to fundraise but are unable to ride, run or walk on event day.
“The Eagles are a world-class organization both on and off the field and we are proud to be part of their effort to drive autism research and improve the lives of millions of people around the world,” John Middleton said.
