See my team!I'm raising money to help people and families with autism live life to the fullest!
Hi everyone! My name is Eric and I'm excited to once again be running with the Doug Flutie Jr. Foundation for Autism at my first Falmouth Road Race! I'm so excited - I've been running with Dougie's Team as an Adaptive Athlete for 5 years.
I run for the Foundation because it's a cause that is very near to my heart. At a very young age, I was diagnosed with developmental disabilities and ADHD. With the help of amazing special education teachers, and a never-quit attitude, I graduated from high school, got my driver’s license and lead a productive independent life.
Running has been my life since high school. I have run in many 5K races and have competed in 15 half marathons and 15 marathons, including the 2025 Boston Marathon.
Please help me in supporting this Foundation to help families and individuals affected by autism live life to the fullest!
Thank you,
Eric
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 26-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.
