Yesterday was a beautiful, sunny day on Cape Cod as Team Next Step took on the 7-mile ASICS Falmouth Road Race in support of our community, music and mentorship programs for seriously ill teens and young adults.
We are so proud of our amazing runners who gave their all—not just on the course, but in fundraising to ensure our programs remain free for the young people who need then at a critical time in their life.
From the bottom of our hearts, thank you to our Team Next Step athletes:
Peg Carlson
Alicia Caruso
Anna DeMare
Lissa Galluccio
Charlotte Garrity
John Giardina
Tamara Hock
Brendan Lynch
Jacob Parsons
Nathaniel Parsons

A special shout-out to Peg and Pete Carlson for graciously opening their doors for a fun post-race team bbq.
All of us at Next Step are so grateful for the commitment our volunteers have made to helping us empower more young people living with serious illness to create their brightest future.
Together, our runners are so close to reaching their $60,000 team goal! Will you help them cross their fundraising finish line?
Every dollar makes a difference in creating a safe space where young people living with serious chronic illness can connect with peers who share similar challenges because of their diagnosis and gain essential life skills to prepare them for a future they never thought possible before Next Step. Thank you for being part of the team!
