My Story…

Hi everyone!

This August, I will be running the Falmouth Road Race for the first time! Having only run two races before (the Rimi Riga Half Marathon), I am excited to seize this opportunity to run along the beautiful Cape and to cross "running a race in Massachusetts" off my MA bucket list. 

I will be joining the Massachusetts Adoption Resource Exchange (MARE) team to help raise awareness and support this important organization. 

As many of you know, adoption has always been a huge part of my life. Not only am I an adoptee, but my career has always centered on supporting children and families. From my time at The Park and teaching through the Fulbright Program to my current role at MARE and, most recently, becoming a Court Appointed Special Advocate (CASA), I've seen firsthand just how important and necessary it is for every child to have a caring, consistent adult advocating for them.

I truly appreciate any amount that you are able to donate to support MARE and their mission to support all youth in need of stability, safety, and permanency.

Description

Thank you for supporting my run to make life-changing connections for youth in foster care.

On August 16th, I'm running the 2026 ASICS Falmouth Road Race to support the work of the Massachusetts Adoption Resource Exchange, Inc. MARE's mission is to build connections for youth in foster care with permanent and adoptive families. 

Committed to providing children and teens in foster care with the support and love they need to thrive, MARE strives to connect each youth they serve with the permanent family they deserve. MARE offers guidance and support to families so they can provide their children with long-term stability, healing, and a sense of belonging.

To support MARE's mission, my goal is to raise $1,500 on behalf of the children and teens in Massachusetts foster care who have a goal of adoption, but no identified resource or family member to provide a permanent home.

Thank you for your donation! Together, we're bringing families together.
