I’m excited to run this year's Falmouth Road Race with the Cape Cod Commercial Fishermen’s Alliance team!
The Alliance is an important organization to our community. The funds raised will help them continue their work advocating for the Cape’s historic 400-year-old fishing industry.
Here’s more about this awesome organization’s work:
- They’re building lasting solutions to protect the ocean ecosystem and the future of Cape Cod’s small-boat fishing fleet by engaging the local fishing community.
- They’re helping to keep our small-boat fleet on the water through work in policy and advocacy, education about local fisheries, and with small business support .
- They’re ensuring our community is actively recruiting the next generation of sustainable commercial fishermen through initiatives like the Fishermen Training Program.
My goal is to raise $2,500! I'd love your support for my run on August 18th.
Donating through this website is simple, fast and secure. It's also the most efficient way to support my fundraising efforts.
By supporting me in this year’s Falmouth Road Race, you’re helping to make a positive impact on the fishing industry on Cape Cod, and ensuring Cape Cod’s fishing community has a VOICE.
