Raise money for Massachusetts Adoption Resource Exchange

MARE builds connections for youth in foster care with permanent and adoptive families.

We exist especially to create life-changing connections for the children and teens who wait the longest in Massachusetts foster care without permanent families, including children of color, teens and young adults, sibling groups, those with disabilities, and LGBTQ+ youth. To this end, we equip and support families to provide stability, healing, and belonging.

The MARE Team is thrilled to return to the Falmouth Road Race for 2026! All of our runners are making strides to make life-changing connections for children and teens in foster care. 

Knowing that every child needs a safe, loving, permanent family to thrive, each of our teammates is running to raise $1,500 in support of MARE's work on behalf of the 1,400 Massachusetts youth who are currently in foster care with a goal of adoption.
