Welcome to Frank‘s (Tedy's Team) fundraising website.
Wow I cant believe it, this will be my 4th year as a member of Tedy's Team and running in the 2020 Boston Marathon. In the past 3 years with the support and generosity of my friends and family I have raised over 35k training, running and at same time raising stroke/heart disease awareness.
I am excited to yet again to train and run over the next year raising donations and stroke heart disease awareness for Tedys Team. Once again my son Morgan (his friends call him Moe) will also be training and running with me. Its always extra special to have him by my side. This year Moe will be running in his first marathon (Marine Corps Marathon) in Oct..
I am sure everyone knows someone, a friend or family member who has been impacted by heart disease or stroke. For me and Moe its my brother Paul who is a heart attack survivor, and Moe’s grandmother who is a stroke survivor. We have seen the struggles and their success fightinging this horrible condition
The mission of Tedy's Team is to raise awareness for stroke and heart disease while supporting survivors on their journey, giving them a means for a comeback!
Tedy's Team was originally founded in 2005, when Tedy Bruschi, former linebacker for the New England Patriots suffered a stroke shortly after winning his 3rd Super Bowl and just days after returning from his first Pro Bowl.
Fast forward 14 years and over $5 million later, through Tedy's Team's support of the American Heart Association/American Stroke Association, stroke has been reduced from the #3 killer of all Americans to the #5 killer.
With the help of over 1,200 alumni, Tedy's team has raised awareness of the warning signs of stroke by knowing the warning signs!
BE FAST: Balance Difficulties, Eyesight Changes, Face Drooping, Arm Weakness, Speech Difficulties - and if you notice any of those signs, it's TIME TO CALL 9-1-1.
