Help Michael raise money

For participating in The 2025 ASICS Falmouth Road Race

"If you can't fly then run, if you can't run then walk, if you can't walk then crawl, but whatever you do you have to keep MOVING FORWARD." Martin Luther King, Jr.

Still going the distance, but never going for speed. Michael and the 53rd Falmouth Road Race.

I am lucky enough to have the opportunity to run in the 53rd Annual Falmouth Road Race on August 17th, 2025! After completing this historic race for the first time with my uncle in 2022, I took to the hills of Woods Hole by myself the last two years, discovering just how much my body is willing to take. New update for this year: I'll have family in attendance, cheering me on for the first time! Once again, I have committed to running seven miles to raise funds for an awesome, local non-profit, Moving Forward Inc.

Moving Forward Inc is a nonprofit organization making a difference in lives of very bright individuals needing social integration support. Servicing individuals with autism spectrum disorder, intellectual disabilities and anxiety issues, this is a special place where members are surrounded by peers and treated with respect while working hard to meet goals. During the height of COVID, Moving Forward Inc purchased a building in West Barnstable (MA), miraculously finished renovations, and moved in early Spring 2021. Previous victories for this fundraising team include: defraying some of the cost associated with new windows (2022), purchasing of a 12-person van (2023), and enabling the growth of Moving Forward's program space for activities (2024).

I've had the pleasure of planning projects and serving with the Moving Forward team in the past, and there is NO non-profit I'd rather be supporting with this effort! Donations of any size make a HUGE impact to a small non-profit like Moving Forward Inc. Thanks for checking my page out, and be sure to find me after the race at the beer tent!

Description

I am inspired by the wonderful gift of happiness, empowerment, encouragement, and challenges, Moving Forward provides this great day program.  


I am running to help raise funds for this incredible organization to enable the growth of our program space.   Moving Forward Inc will remain intentionally small, yet they feel the need for a small outdoor addition to allow the expansion for some of our activities.
