What does Autism Speaks do?

I am wondering if Autism Speaks is just one of those "charities" that takes peoples money and keeps it to get wealthy for themselves? I am wondering because I am seeing nothing that they do. I would like to find someplace for services or to steer me in the right direction or something. But when I called them, they said they were just for fundraising. But what do they raise money for? Autism Awareness. Does not make sense. They have a website, they do fundraisers. Does anyone know anything about Autism Speaks beyond their fundraising? Are they just a fraud?
