Help Michael raise money

Dear Friends and Family,

On August 21st, I will be dusting off the running shoes to support a great cause- Clarke Schools for Hearing and Speech.  

Over 20 years ago, Andrew DeCastro and I met at Hamilton College and we remains close friends today.  Andrew's family, including his wife, Lauren and children Hannah (age 9) and Wilfred (age 6), are a special part of my family's life. We share many of life's celebrations, vacations, and good times together.

Lauren and Hannah were both born with moderate to severe hearing loss. Beginning at a very young age, Lauren's family sought out help from Clarke Schools. This connection has enabled her to lead a successful life and career. Today, Clarke Schools supports Hannah and the DeCastro family in their continued life with hearing loss. 

Hannah is a superstar! She excels in school, on the field, and the ice. She is smart, social, kind, and athletic. In 2013, I held Hannah hours after her birth at Women and Infants Hospital in Providence; since then, I have truly enjoyed seeing her grow and become the special little girl she is today!

I am honored and excited to support Hannah, Lauren, the DeCastro Family and Clarke Schools for Hearing and Speech by running this year's Falmouth Road Race. Please join me and consider donating to this worthwhile cause! Thank you for your generosity, and wish me luck in the heat and on the hills on August 21st!

Best,

Oz
