There are a lot of ways to spend $100 on a Saturday night in Charlotte.

Dinner. A few drinks. Maybe a show.

October 10 can be different.

For $100, you can spend the evening playing casino games, eating, drinking, laughing with friends and competing for incredible prizes…

…while helping young adults with autism right here in Charlotte.

Oh.
And somebody could be going to Ireland.

The Invitation

Welcome to Casino Night.

On Saturday, October 10, Autism After 18 is hosting a Casino Night that’s anything but your typical charity fundraiser.

Bring your spouse. Grab another couple. Bring your friends or coworkers. Make it a date night. Make it a group night.

Just come ready to have some fun.

You’ll play. You’ll eat. You’ll drink. You’ll laugh. And you’ll have opportunities to win thousands of dollars in prizes donated by businesses and supporters throughout our community.

Including one prize that’s especially hard to ignore…

The Grand Prize

A Trip to Ireland.*

Yes.
Ireland.

Not a coffee mug. Not a gift certificate you’ll forget about in a drawer.

A trip to Ireland.

And somebody at Casino Night could win it.

Suddenly that $100 Saturday night looks a little more interesting.

Why it matters

But the best part of the night isn’t what you could win.

It’s what your ticket helps make possible.

Autism After 18 is a Charlotte-area nonprofit helping young adults with autism prepare for adulthood and greater independence.

Because autism doesn’t disappear at 18.

Young adults served by Autism After 18 in Charlotte

After years of school systems, therapies, IEPs and support services, graduation comes — and families face a whole new set of questions:

  • Employment.
  • Independent living.
  • Life skills.
  • Social connections.
  • Community.
  • Purpose.
  • A future.

Autism After 18 exists to help answer those questions.

So while you’re enjoying Casino Night, you’re helping young adults with autism build skills, confidence, independence and a future.

You get a great night out.
They get a better shot at what comes next.

That’s a pretty good deal for $100.

Included with admission

Here’s what your $100 ticket gets you.

Casino-style fun

Come ready to play and enjoy the excitement.

Food & drinks

Because Casino Night shouldn’t happen on an empty stomach.

Thousands of dollars in prizes

An exciting collection of prizes and experiences from businesses throughout our community.

A chance at the Ireland trip*

Yes, we’re mentioning Ireland again. Wouldn’t you?

A great night with friends

Bring your spouse, partner, friends or coworkers and make a night of it.

A chance to make a difference

Your evening supports young adults with autism right here in our community.

There’s just one catch

Only 135 tickets are available.

That’s not marketing hype. That’s the number.

135

And when they’re gone, they’re gone


So if you’re thinking…

“This actually sounds like a really fun night…”

Don’t wait.

Text your friends. Grab another couple. Put together a group.
Then get your tickets while they’re still available.

Because on Saturday, October 10, 135 people are going to eat, drink, play, laugh, win incredible prizes and support an organization doing important work for young adults with autism.

And somebody could end the evening thinking…

“OMG. I’m going to Ireland.”

The only way you have a chance of being there when it happens…
is to be in the room.
