For participating in The 2025 ASICS Falmouth Road Race

I'm "Running for Willie"

Help support me in this year's Falmouth Road Race as I "Run for Willie" and the fight for a cure against cancer with The Willie Fund team!

Description

We're "Running for Willie"!! 

The Willie Fund is honored to be part of the ASICS Falmouth Road Race! The funds raised by our dedicated runners goes directly to Mass Eye & Ear, part of Mass General Brigham hospital in Boston to help support the research and fight for a cure of Head & Neck Cancer.


About The Willie Fund:

The Willie Fund was started in honor of William J. Finigan, but known to most as "Willie", who passed away on August 26th 2021 from Squamous Cell Carcinoma, a type of Head and Neck Cancer.

The Willie Fund works directly with Mass Eye and Ear Infirmary, part of Mass General Brigham, and the dedicated doctors who treated Willie, allocating all donations specifically to help fund further research for Head & Neck Cancer. 

Our hope is to ultimately find a cure so that no one has to lose their loved one as young and as sudden as we did Willie.
