Agoo - Helping Autism Spectrum Australia put the pieces together

April 17, 2010 - PRLog -- Agoo - helping Autism Spectrum Australia put the pieces together

Studies show 1 in 160 Australians have an Autism Spectrum Disorder. April is Autism Awareness month and Agoo is proud to partner with Autism Spectrum Australia in raising money for valuable services and to increase awareness of this challenging condition.

Autism Spectrum Australia (Aspect) is the leading provider of autism-specific services in Australia. Aspect builds confidence and capacity in people with an autism spectrum disorder (ASD), their families and communities by providing information, education and other services.

The puzzle or jigsaw symbol is often used to illustrate the mystery and complexity of the autism spectrum. The different colors and shapes represent the diversity of the people and families living with the condition. The brightness of the ribbon represents hope, and the joy people living on the spectrum bring to those they touch.

For every pair of Puzzle Fun legwarmers, made from super soft, sustainable bamboo, (as pictured above) sold between now and 7 May, Agoo will donate $2.50 to Autism Spectrum Australia.

This design will be reduced from $14.99 to $12.50 using the code ASD at www.agoo.com.au in an endeavour to increase sales and therefore donations.

Agoo® is uniquely styled athletic wear for urban kids. It is functional, fashionable and makes being a kid a lot more fun. It is not cutesy or cartoony. Our key component is our fabrics. They contain a strong UV protected finish, blocking out any harmful ultra violet rays. We felt this made an ideal fabric so we developed a complete line that would allow your kids to stay out and play a little longer. For mums, we thought Stain Resistance would be an added bonus, so feel safe and rest assured, your kids can do all the things kids do and their clothes will stay looking newer longer.

When a busy mother of 2 active boys discovered this Canadian brand she knew she had to bring it to Australia so Australian parents could also discover the "Stay out and Play" Agoo Collection. She established Agoo Australia to distribute this range and the Leg Hugger range.
