Help Joan raise money

Dear friends,

I’m excited to share that I will be participating in the 54th Falmouth Road Race as a proud member of Team FACE, running to support the Foundation to Advance Catholic Education (FACE).

FACE provides critical financial assistance to students and families who seek a Catholic education within the Fall River Diocese, spanning communities from Attleboro to Cape Cod. Through their support, more children are given the opportunity to learn, grow, and thrive in an environment rooted in faith, academic excellence, and strong moral values.

This will be my second time running as part of Team FACE. My first experience was incredibly rewarding—not just as a runner, but as someone who saw firsthand the impact that this mission has on students and their families. It inspired me to return this year with even greater motivation and purpose.

A Catholic school education offers more than academics—it helps shape character, instills compassion, and grounds students in the teachings of the Church. In a world that can often feel uncertain, these values provide a strong and steady foundation for young people to grow into thoughtful, responsible, and faith-filled individuals.

I would be truly grateful for your support as I take on this race again. Every donation, no matter the size, directly helps students in need access an education that can transform their lives.

Thank you for your generosity and encouragement—it means more than you know.
