Help Alexandra raise money

For participating in The 2021 ASICS Falmouth Road Race

My Story…

Hi Everyone,

I wanted to reach out and let you know that I’m fundraising for The Doug Flutie Jr. Foundation for Autism.  This year as a vow to myself I am giving back to those in need even in the hardest of times.  I was selected to run on the Doug Flutie Team for the Falmouth Road Race on August 15th!!  I am very excited and honored to be able to run for such an amazing cause. As many of you know I have had the privilege and honor to work as an Integrated Preschool Teacher for the past 16 years.  During this time I have had the ability to work side by side with many students and their families who have had Autism touch their lives. Each and every one of these students past and present have left a lasting impression on my teaching career and I would not have it any other way.  Each child's journey has been individual yet part of a team of individuals all striving to make a difference in that one child's life. I have always enjoyed watching my student grown and develop over the years.   Autism is such an amazing and complex field that researchers have just begun to understand.  Research is such an amazing avenue that allows me and all the other educators to develop a way of teaching and learning about these children.  

I would be honored if you could help me reach my goal and to contribute to my fundraiser.  A donation of any amount would truly help me reach my goal and solve the puzzle of Autism.

If you could also share my fundraiser link with your friends, it would mean so much. The more people hear about this cause the faster the Doug Flutie team can reach their goal. 

Many thanks, 

Lexi 

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.
