There were many noble charitable organizations I could have worked with for this race, but I chose The Family Place because I've had the opportunity to witness firsthand the importance and impact of early childhood interventions and education on children's ability to thrive.
As new parents in the Upper Valley, my husband and I were constantly wondering if our little guy was developing on track. Around 9 months old, we had concerns about his mobility. Our pediatrician referred us to The Family Place and we heard back from them the next day! They started providing services for our son and before you knew it, he was literally up and running! Not only did our son thrive, but my husband and I felt confident in our understanding of the different milestones and now had the skills to promote his development.
I now work for The Family Place as a family support home visitor, providing support and parent education to families with young children. I chose to run for The Family Place, because I believe the services they provide are crucial in helping families in our community thrive!
Please join me in supporting The Family Place! I'm proud to support this wonderful organization, and appreciate all of you for joining me!
We are a team of runners supporting The Family Place in its 33rd year of providing education, support and services to Upper Valley children and families.
Our team members have committed to raising at least $500 each by running in the Covered Bridges Half Marathon on Sunday, June 3, 2019. Money from fundraisers like the Covered Bridges Half Marathon is vital to The Family Place because it isn't earmarked for any specific program; instead it can be applied to wherever the need is greatest. It's only with the support of our generous community that we can provide continuous, comprehensive services to every family!
