My Story…
Hello! I am so honored to run the 2021 Falmouth Road Race with Dougie’s Team to raise funds for the Doug Flutie Jr Foundation for Autism. Funds raised go directly to individuals and families affected by Autism to lessen the financial burden and to schools and communities.
Charities need help more than ever and I hope you consider donating to a cause that’s very special and personal to me as a mother of an amazing boy on the Autism spectrum. I appreciate your support with helping those affected with ASD live life to the fullest!
Description
Former NFL Quarterback, Doug Flutie, and his wife Laurie started the Doug Flutie, Jr. Flutie Foundation for Autism in 1998 after their son, Dougie, was diagnosed with autism at the age of three. Their personal experience of raising a son on the autism spectrum inspired them to help others on an equally long and challenging journey. Over its 20-year history, the Flutie Foundation has distributed over $14 million to schools and organizations that provide clinical therapies, respite services, recreational programs, social skills training, job supports and more for people affected by autism.
The Flutie Foundation also provides education technology tools, adaptive camp scholarships, safety equipment, and direct family support through its special programs. The Flutie Foundation’s newest initiative, Flutie Spectrum Enterprises, will help create businesses to employ adults with autism.
