HATTIESBURG, MS (WDAM) - An Oak Grove High School student is hoping her senior project will help families who have children with autism.

Havana Gholar organized a first-ever, run to raise money for the Hattiesburg Area Autism Support Group.

A separate 5-K run and 5-K walk was held to raise funds at the Longleaf Trace this morning.

Gholar hopes the run will become an annual event.
