Help Cameron raise money

For participating in The 2023 ASICS Falmouth Road Race

My Story…

Thank you for visiting my fundraising page! I am so honored to be running the Falmouth Road Race for the 3rd consecutive year for MGH’s Lurie Center for Autism. I am excited to give back to The Lurie Center - I would like others to benefit from their expertise as much as my family and I have. 


The Lurie Center for Autism is an outpatient medical care facility that focuses on treatment and research for adults and children with autism. It is this same center were my family began their journey with me when I was only a toddler. I am so thrilled I can now help and give back to this amazing program.


It is my hope you will consider supporting me as I train and raise money for MGH's Lurie Center so they can do more research and help other ASD families. 


My goal this year is to raise $1,500. Any amount would be appreciated.


Thank you in advance for your donation and support! 

Description

All money raised through the ASICS Falmouth Road Race will help fund the Lurie Center's Family Support Team; a consultative lifeline helping patients & families navigate the difficult medical, therapeutic and life decisions related to caring for an individual with autism. Whether it is a question about insurance, educational support, adult services, or a sibling adjustment concern, because of the generous donations collected through this event, the Family Support Team is just a phone call away. They meet one-on-one with families, but also field an estimated 7,500 calls per year, and make an additional 4,500 or so follow-up calls. 

Autism diagnoses are on the rise. The number of patients seen at the Lurie Center is growing steadily with more than 10,000 appointments during the last year. Unfortunately, less than half of the clinical costs are covered by health insurance reimbursements.

Charitable support is essential for the vitality of the clinic and there is an extraordinary opportunity to double this event's fundraising efforts. Thanks to the Nancy Lurie Marks Foundation, every donation received will be matched dollar for dollar.
