I'm looking forward to running my 4th half marathon on March 19, 2023, this time with Dougie's Team for Autism! The United Airlines NYC Half brings together 25,000+ runners for a journey through Brooklyn and Manhattan, and is a great opportunity to raise awareness and funds for important organizations like this one.
The funds raised will support programs and activities for people and families affected by autism, with the goal of helping them live their lives to the fullest. Through my mom's work at Melmark New England - a not-for-profit organization that provides residential, educational, and rehabilitative services for children, adolescents, and adults diagnosed with autism spectrum disorders, intellectual disabilities, and developmental disabilities - I've observed how critical and influential organizations like Melmark, the Doug Flutie Jr. Foundation and others are in enriching the educational, professional and social lives of people and families affected by autism.
Please consider joining me by making a donation to the Doug Flutie Jr. Foundation for Autism. Thank you in advance for your support!
