The Waves Are Building: Individual Challenges Now Live!

We’re officially kicking off Making Waves for Autism 2025—and it starts with you.


Our Individual Challenges are now live, giving paddlers across Canada a chance to make an impact on their own terms. Whether you’re hitting the water solo or logging kilometers on dry land, there’s a challenge for everyone.


This year’s theme? 365/24/7—a powerful reminder that autism is every day, all day, and all year.


Here’s how you can take part:
• 365 Challenge – Log 365 km over May. Tackle it in one go or chip away at it throughout the month.
• 24 Challenge – Paddle for 24 hours in May. Spread it out or rally your crew for a 24-hour relay.
• 7 Challenge – Paddle for 7 days straight—any distance, any time in May.
• Choose Your Own Adventure – Set a goal that challenges you, in a way that works for your lifestyle and ability.


Complete your challenge any time between May 1–31. You’ll be raising funds for Autism Canada while showing the world what real commitment looks like.


So rally your friends, set a goal, and make some waves!
