Help Chantal raise money

I am delighted to be running for a third year in a row for Falmouth Team Cell Phones For Soldiers in this year's 50th running of the Falmouth Road Race. 

My husband's best friend from college, Rob Bergquist, co-founded Cell Phones for Soldiers in 2004 and has since then been connecting those who protect us, providing free phone service for low-income and at-risk Veterans in the United States.

CPFS Mission: Cell Phones For Soldiers is a national non-profit organization dedicated to providing cost-free communication services and emergency funding to active-duty military members and veterans. Since 2004, the charity has provided more than 400 million minutes of air time to servicemen and women deployed around the world, by recycling more than 25 million cell phones reducing the impact on landfills.

Falmouth Team CPFS this year will be raising funds to support our Minutes That Matter program. 100% of the proceeds raised will go towards subsidizing phone service for low-income and at-risk Veterans looking to stay connected to resources they need to get back on their feet. Veterans use Minutes That Matter to stay connected to family and friends, Veterans Affairs, medical resources and employment opportunities.

It will cost Cell Phones for Soldiers roughly $20 per month to subsidize unlimited talk, text and data for a Veteran. 

My fundraising goal of $1000 will provide 3 months of free phone service for more than 15 Veterans looking to stay connected to resources they need to live a healthy lifestyle.
