WEST CHESTER, Ohio, May 1, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Home furniture and decor retailer Grandin Road announced today a charitable media event to benefit Autism Speaks through NBC Universal's George to the Rescue broadcast show.

Grandin Road President Jason Jones says, "Grandin Road is all about empowering joyful living, and we love having opportunities to help improve someone's quality of life. We're honored to contribute to this special episode of George to the Rescue because they work to make homes more accessible, usable, and ultimately fun for very deserving families. It's that spirit that is core to the mission of Grandin Road Cares, so we are thrilled to support Autism Speaks."
