My Story
As a 🏃♀️ who grew up on the Cape, nothing feels more like summer than the Falmouth Road Race.
Despite the lack of shade ☀️ lots of sneaky hills 🎢 and it always being the hottest day of August 💦 it’s always been one of my favorites.
This August, I am grateful to be running for the @capewellnesscollab team, they provide services not covered by insurance for cancer patients on the Cape.
Help me reach my fundraising goal that I set for myself. I’d love your support.

Description
Cape Wellness Collaborative's (CWC) mission is to help residents of Cape Cod and the Islands who are facing cancer feel better through integrative therapies, nourishing meals, and emotional support services.
Integrative therapies like massage, acupuncture, yoga, and more can significantly ease the physical and emotional side effects of cancer treatment and recovery. Yet most of these therapies are not covered by insurance, making them inaccessible to many when they’re needed most.
CWC bridges that gap. We connect individuals facing cancer with trusted, local practitioners who provide integrative care—and we cover the cost. Our model keeps care close to home, compassionate, and accessible.
Today, we serve approximately 1,100 people each year. Through our Wellness Eats program, we’ve also provided more than 18,000 handcrafted, nourishing meals to clients and caregivers across our community. We also host monthly support group meetings at our HQ in South Yarmouth.
Our goal is simple and deeply meaningful: to help people feel better—physically, emotionally, and holistically—while navigating cancer.
