Autism Awareness is associated with the hate group Autism Speaks - they seek to increase awareness by implying that autism is a tragedy in order to increase their profits. They use blue because it is their companies brand colour, it reminds people of their organisation so they are more likely to donate to them rather than to autism organisation that support autistic people.
The blue ribbon on the breaking bad shirt stands for autism. This is to support autism.
There are many organisations that support, or claim to support, autism and Autistic people. It'd be impossible to determine how many there are globally. Do bare in mind that many organisations actually work against Autistic people, only support those run by Autistic people themselves.
Jim Sinclair founded the Autism Network International in 1992 in attempts to provide peer support, and help with coping with autism and aiding in problem-solving. The organization is actually run by people who suffer from autism.
Walk for Autism supports Autism Speaks, which is widely considered to be a hate group due to the harm they cause to Autistic people. A good Christian would not support this organization.
Autism Walk is promoted by Autism Speaks to increase their profits, Autism Speaks is considered to be a hate group by Autistic people - if you care about Autistic people you don't give a single penny to that organisation. If you want to walk for Autism start your own walk, make it free and ask for donations, and support an Autism charity that helps Autistic people.
Autism awareness is simply making people aware of autism and Autistic people. Unfortunately organizations such as Autism Speaks uses autism awareness to speak negatively about autism and Autistic people to increase their profits, thus there remains a lot of ignorance about autism.
People shouldn't be concerned about Autism. There's a lot of people using propaganda against Autistic people to increase their own profits or agenda: for example Autism Speaks telling people that there is an 'epidemic' to scare people about Autism so that people will donate to them to 'cure' Autism. The fact is that Autism diagnosis is increasing but that doesn't mean that Autism is on the rise, in fact there's no evidence to support the idea that it is on the rise. Autism is also not a terrible thing, what is terrible is lack of support, treatment, and acceptance of Autistic people which not only harms them but also harms families who are made to believe they must spend a fortune on unnecessary and harmful treatments to try to change their Autistic child. Autism isn't the problem, attitudes towards Autism are the real concern.
