My Story…

So maybe I'm crazy, but to celebrate 3 months with our sweet baby Grace, I'll be running and/or partially walking the Falmouth Road Race in August! I'm raising money for a wonderful charity, the Spina Bifida Association of Greater New England. 

Spina Bifida is the most common permanently disabling birth defect in the U.S. Spina Bifida literally means "split spine." It is a neural tube defect occurring early in pregnancy, and affects every individual differently, depending on the location and size of the opening. 

This cause is important to me because my mother lost a baby to spina bifida between my two older sisters. It is something we have talked about my whole life, and something that concerned me with all three of my pregnancies. 

Please consider donating any amount you can to help me reach my goal! 

Thanks so much, 

Ashley 

Description

I am proud to be running the Falmouth Road Race this year in support of the Spina Bifida Association of Greater New England.  

This tiny, but mighty, organization does incredible work providing resources, advocacy, education, and community for the estimated 4,400 individuals and families living with Spina Bifida in all 6 New England states.  It has made a huge impact on me and my family, and I greatly appreciate your generous support!

With your help, SBAGNE can provide:

  • One welcome package to a new family with Spina Bifida ($25)
  • One SBAGNE Virtual Program ($50)
  • Critical information and resources via e-newsletters to our membership and New England clinics ($100)
  • One Empowerment Grant for an individual with Spina Bifida to try a new experience ($250)
  • One scholarship to our Regional Education Conference ($500)
  • Support for one family to attend our Teen Empowerment Weekend ($1,000)
