Thank you for visiting my personal fundraising page in support of the Doug Flutie Jr. Foundation for Autism.  Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to make a contribution to this important and worthwhile foundation.

Our 4 ½ year old daughter, Olivia, has autism and deals with the challenges of  this developmental disorder daily, with the help of wonderful teachers, therapists, doctors and a wide circle of supportive friends and family.  As a family living with an autistic child, we are blessed to have these resources available to us and Olivia.  We continue to be amazed and grateful for the progress Olivia makes daily as she faces this disorder head on.

Unfortunately, far too many families can neither afford nor access the professional resources and help which children with autism require.  This is where the Doug Flutie Jr. Foundation for Autism steps in: Providing financial assistance to disadvantaged families as well as funding for autism education and research.  I couldn’t be more proud running the Boston Marathon as part of “Dougie’s Team” knowing that the funding they provide, through your generosity, has a direct impact on children like Olivia.

The Boston Marathon will be a challenge for me but couldn’t possibly compare to the challenges children with autism and their families face every day.  Your generosity today will help the Doug Flutie Jr. Foundation for Autism continue to fight the good fight on behalf of the children and families affected by this challenging disorder.

On behalf of myself and my family, Thank You for your kindness and generosity!

Warmest Regards,

Pam Macdonald
