April is Autism Awareness Month, and Lumpy’s Diner in Antioch and Pittsburg has joined the fight against the disorder.

Sensory exploration helps autistic kids understand the confusing world that surrounds them. As special-needs programs are currently underfunded, it’s hard for teachers of autistic kids to acquire the equipment that gives the kids the best sensory-exploration treatment possible.

On Wednesday, April 18 from 5 to 9 p.m. at both Lumpy’s locations, 25 percent of your dinner will go toward the cause of helping autistic kids, including a donation by Lumpy’s to the Special Kids Foundation. In addition, the Antioch restaurant will feature educational materials and a Jumpy House for kids to play in for a $1 donation.

Lumpy’s in Antioch is located at 5891 Lone Tree Way. The Pittsburg restaurant is located at 615 Railroad Ave.
