My Story…
Erica and I are proud to be running as charity runners in support of Community Servings, an organization that I learned about when I first met Erica. Community Servings provides medically tailored meals for people with critical illnesses as well as for their families and caretakers. Erica started volunteering with Community Servings back in 2008, and although she no longer does so, those years of chopping carrots and packaging up meals are some of her happiest memories here in Boston. Erica and I have committed to each raising $1500 for Community Servings, and we are so proud to be a part of their team. We are also running this in honor of Jack McNulty, the father of Laura McNulty, one of Erica's closest friends (and someone I now also count as a dear friend). Jack, who passed away in October, was an avid runner who logged over 34,000 miles in his lifetime and ran the Falmouth Road Race 45 years in a row. We will both be keeping Jack's memory close as we pound the hilly Falmouth course in August.
Description
COMMUNITY SERVINGS BELIEVES IN THE ASTONISHING POWER OF FOOD
Community Servings is a food and nutrition non-profit dedicated to providing medically tailored meals to individuals and their families suffering from critical and chronic illness. In their 35-year history they have provided over 15 million meals to our most vulnerable neighbors across Massachusetts and Rhode Island. I am proud to partner with them and the Falmouth Road Race to raise funds and help to advance their mission and feed even more people too sick to shop or cook for themselves.
Community Servings' mission:
"Our mission is to actively engage the community to provide medically tailored, nutritious, scratch-made meals to chronically and critically ill individuals and their families. We commit, in all our programs and business practices, to prioritize racial and economic justice and health equity."
