Help Joy raise money

For participating in The 2024 ASICS Falmouth Road Race

My Story...

To me, running and fundraising are the best of all worlds.  Goals are set.  Challenges HAVE to be met.  Hundreds of deserving people benefit within communities. YAY!!  None of this can be done without YOUR support -- in addition to my commitment and training.  In choosing to help others -->> we are a team and thank you!!


On August 18, I will be taking on yet another challenge and running the Falmouth Road Race in support of the non-profit Michael Lisnow Respite Center in Hopkinton.  I have seen this center grow over the years to today being a place of fun, love and refuge for so many children with disabilities as well as their families to come to relax, be productive and enjoy any number of meaningful experiences provided by the center and the kind and able people who work there.  The money we raise will help provide scholarship to families who cannot afford the daycare needed for their children who may be struggling and need help.


I hope you will join me in supporting this effort. I will do the hard part and run the hilly, 7-mile course -- in all its summer heat and humidity --which are REAL CHALLENGING FACTORS.  Would you be willing to donate any amount to help?


Thank you kindly for your time and consideration.


Best,


Joy

Description

Falmouth Road Race fundraising page to benefit The Michael Lisnow Respite Center!

The Michael Lisnow Respite Center is a home away from home for children and adults with disabilities, a place that offers parents time off from the emotional and physical care needed by their children. 

100% of the proceeds will benefit the Michael Lisnow Scholarship Fund.  This scholarship is awarded to children in our daycare whose families cannot afford services. Every dollar counts!

Thank you so much for your support!
