Help Rachel raise money

For participating in The 2021 ASICS Falmouth Road Race

My Story…

Time to start running! This will be my second Falmouth road race for EMPOWERHER. I’m honored to say the least. EMPOWERHER is a non profit organization founded by Cara Belvin, whom herself knows the grieving loss of a mother.

I remember my mother’s funeral like it was yesterday. I remember the police blocking off the highway - I remember getting in the limo , I remember hugging my friends to the point where I crumbled to the ground. Going through my last year of high school after my mom died , was so tremendously hard……. There are SO many things the older me, would tell the 17 year old world got flipped upside down me. If I had EMPOWERHER when my mom died and used their support system , that could have helped me with my grieving process in a different way .

As the years continue to pass , losing my mom never became easier, I’ve just learned to deal with it differently. I continue to learn - some days are better than others.

Please consider donating to the EMPOWERHER organization. To help empower, support and connect girls who’ve lost their mothers , with mentors and provide other year round opportunities to connect as a community.

Thank you for your support.
