Help Marissa raise money

For participating in The 2024 ASICS Falmouth Road Race

My Story…

I feel honored to be able to run the 2024 Falmouth Road Race for We Beat Cancer. I’ve been a pediatric oncology/hematology nurse on 6NE at Boston Children’s Hospital for over 10 years.  This job is hard, but what these brave warriors do every single day is harder. I take pride in getting to be what our patients and their families need, a hug, a joke, a smile, a dance party or a source of light on their darkest days. These courageous kids and their families go through it all - but they always show me their JOY, Their little giggles, their resiliency. I am so honored and humbled to take care of our 6NE patients and their families during the hardest time of their lives. Every dollar raised for my race goes directly to We BEAT Cancer. This amazing organization will donate all funds towards cancer organizations, as well as hospitals - I will be running for our 6NE patients and families at Boston Children’s Hospital/The Jimmy Fund Clinci DFCI - these funds will go directly toward these organizations. See you at Falmouth. Thank you so much 

Donate to help Marissa raise money for The 2024 ASICS Falmouth Road Race’s fundraising campaign.
