My Story…
I am running in honor of my mother who I lost when I was 17 leaving an indelible mark on my life. It's this profound personal journey that connected me with the incredible organization that is Empower.
Empower stands as a beacon of hope for children and young adults who, have experienced the heart-wrenching loss of a parent. The opportunity to run for Team Empower is a chance to honor my mother's memory by contributing to an organization that fills the void left by loss.
Any contribution is greatly appreciated.
Description
Join me in supporting Empower by helping me raise money as I take on the 2024 Falmouth Road Race!
Empower is an international nonprofit with a very specific mission — to empower, support, and connect children and young adults (up through age 24) who have experienced the loss of a parent. Empower provides events that remind children they are not alone in their grief, and a unique one-on-one mentor program with positive role models from the community who help teach, “loss is survivable.”
Cara was nine years old when her mother Kit died of breast cancer and formed Empower as a grassroots movement out of the gratitude she had for all the layers of support her family received growing up. Empower operates with a lean staff and thousands of volunteers from across the globe and all programs remain at no charge to the family.
