The Falmouth Road Race: Will You Go The Extra Mile?

Falmouth Road Race

As we reflect on 2024, we’re filled with gratitude for everyone who supports our mission. From generous donors to those who take on incredible fundraising challenges on our behalf, your dedication makes our life-saving work possible. Speaking of which, we’re thrilled to announce that our Boston Marathon Team Preemie, led by the unstoppable Maureen, is back for its fourth year. And that’s not all—we have even more exciting news! This August 17th, Mothers’ Milk Bank Northeast will participate in the Falmouth Road Race for the very first time . . .

The Falmouth Road Race – a summer icon . . .

Established in 1973, the Falmouth Road Race has become one of the premier running events of the summer. Boasting a stunning seven-mile course along the Cape Cod coastline, the event attracts Olympians, elite, and recreational runners from all over the world. And this year, we’re grateful for the opportunity to take part through the “Numbers for Non-Profits” Program.

Even better yet, we have several highly-coveted bibs up for grabs . . .

Interested in running this scenic seven-miler while making a lasting difference for babies in need? We’d love to hear from you.

Here’s what our selected runners can expect . . .

When you join our team and commit to raising at least $1,250, your run becomes more than a personal journey – it’s a pledge to help save little lives. Every dollar you raise is a catalyst for positive transformation, giving premature and medically fragile newborns the chance to leave the NICU, celebrate their first birthday, and live a bright future.

Selected team members will receive:

  • A guaranteed race entry ($200 entry fee covered by us)
  • A personal fundraising web page
  • Additional fundraising support and guidance
  • A special race singlet – wear it with pride
  • A chance to name our inaugural Falmouth team
  • A unique opportunity to support and uplift families (get ready to feel warm ‘n’ fuzzy!)

The ultimate finish line . . .

Inspired? Motivated? Determined? Join us to help build families, futures, and hope.

Psst! Not a runner?

There are lots of ways to partner with us to raise funds for vulnerable babies. You can be parent partner for our runners by helping raise awareness, funds, and cheering them on mile after mile. Birthday party fundraisers, charity yoga classes, even good old fashioned bake sales can make a big difference for our little warriors. Reach out to talk about the possibilities!
