Thank you for visiting my fundraising page. I'm back! I am both honored & excited to be running the NYC Marathon with Dougie's Team. I am team member, alum, veteran, supporter & an employee of the Doug Flutie Jr. Foundation for Autism. I have been part of Dougie's Team, officially running the Boston Marathon in 2017 & 2020, and I proudly wear my Dougie's Team singlet for many other races & marathons. Not only does the Foundation hold a special place in my heart, but I also now work there & everyday I see firsthand how hard the Foundation works to help families in New England and beyond with grants and financial assistance & other support services. Please consider making a donation if you are able, to help us continue with the Foundation's mission to help people and families affected by autism live life to the fullest. THANK YOU for your continued love & support!

Mission: To help people and families affected by autism live life to the fullest.

Vision: A world where people with autism live productive lives where they are included, respected, and actively engaged in their communities

Promise: Our program and activities improve the quality of everday life for people and families affected by autism along 7 key dimensions that are critical to living each day fully.

People and families affected by autism deserve to be:

1. educated

6. supported
7. informed
