My Story…
As many of you know, Ace, our youngest son, was diagnosed with Autism in November of 2022. This will be our 2nd year running Falmouth to support Dougie’s Team and The Flutie Foundation for Autism Awareness! This year, Addie (15) and Kam (11) will be joining Andy & Kate, running 7.2 miles and raising money to support Autism Awareness!
Description
Former NFL Quarterback, Doug Flutie, and his wife Laurie started the Doug Flutie, Jr. Flutie Foundation for Autism in 1998 after their son, Dougie, was diagnosed with autism at the age of three. Their personal experience of raising a son on the autism spectrum inspired them to help others on an equally long and challenging journey. Over its 25-year history, the Flutie Foundation has distributed over $14 million to schools and organizations that provide clinical therapies, respite services, recreational programs, social skills training, job supports and more for people affected by autism.
The Flutie Foundation also provides education technology tools, adaptive camp scholarships, safety equipment, and direct family support through its special programs. The Flutie Foundation’s newest initiative, Flutie Spectrum Enterprises, will help create businesses to employ adults with autism.
