According to autism advocacy organization Autism Speaks “more children will be diagnosed with autism this year than with AIDS, diabetes & cancer combined”. Legendary fashion designer Tommy Hilfiger and wife Dee (who are both Autism Speaks board of directors members) and Autism Speaks co-founders Bob and Suzanne Wright invited New York Knicks point guard Jason Kidd and teammate Amare’e Stoudimire, New York Rangers forward Brian Boyle, pro surfer Alek Parker, music producer Billy Mann, and countless celebs along with their families to the “Tommy Hilfiger Fifth Avenue Flagship for a champagne reception on September 19, 2012 to celebrate the in-store launch of the brand’s childrenswear collection. Tommy Hilfiger U.S.A., Inc. donated 20% of sales of the Tommy Hilfiger Kids collection from the evening to Autism Speaks.” (Source: Business Wire)
