My aunt Julie’s company, ARTS AND REC, LLC, is teaming up with the Doug Flutie Jr. Foundation for Autism to raise money for a scholarship fund for ARTS AND REC to help those who need it. This organization assists individuals with special needs to meet their health goals by offering therapeutic recreation. Thanks to this partnership, I have the incredible privilege to run with Dougie’s Team and raise money for a cause near and dear to myself and my family.
Thank you to everyone who donates! I hope to make you all proud on race day.

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.
