My Story…
Hi everyone! My name is Kerri, and I’m running with the Flutie Foundation. For Autism to represent & fundraise another local organization, Raising Harts! Raising Harts is a fantastic advocacy and outreach group for families with neurodivergent children on the south shore of MA! Raising Harts means so much to me because one of my amazing coworkers, Candice, is a founder of the organization! She is an incredible advocate for both her own children and others with autism. I know by fundraising money on the Flutie team for Raising Harts, every dollar will go toward creating a more inclusive world for neurodivergent families!
Thank you for reading, sharing, and donating! Anything helps! 😊
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.
