I'm raising money to help people and families with autism live life to the fullest!
Hi Everyone! I am so excited to partner with the Doug Flutie, Jr. Foundation for Autism! This August, I will be running the Falmouth Road Race as a Charity member with the foundation. This is more than just a race for me. This is a chance to give back to an extremely smart and capable community that I have had the true joy of working with. This past year, I have worked as an RBT which entails providing 1-on-1 therapy to young children on the spectrum. Through this therapy, I teach them socially appropriate behavior through play based and peer interactions. I have made so many valuable connections and watched my clients grow. With your help, we can continue serving this community! My goal is to raise $1,500 by August 16 (the day of the race) that directly goes to the Flutie Foundation. Any and all support is appreciated and welcome!
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 28-year history, the Flutie Foundation has distributed over $25 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.
