Hi, I’ll be running in Boston’s Run to Remember to honor first responders and the Massachusetts Fallen Heroes who made the ultimate sacrifice since September 11, 2001.
I chose to join Team Mass Fallen Heroes because this cause combines two powerful missions I deeply believe in:
-Remembering and honoring those who gave everything — police officers, firefighters, EMS personnel, and military heroes from Massachusetts
-Supporting the families they left behind (Gold Star families)
-Helping veterans build bright futures through entrepreneurship, mentorship, and opportunity Massachusetts Fallen Heroes (and their flagship program InnoVets) turns remembrance into real, lasting impact:
-Maintaining the beautiful Massachusetts Fallen Heroes Memorial in the Seaport
-Providing year-round support, events, and scholarships for Veterans & Gold Star families
-Running Boston’s home-grown veteran business accelerator — InnoVets — with programs like STRAC, CodeX, and Veterans Edge at the Emond Center for Engagement in the Seaport that help veterans launch businesses and thrive
Every mile I run on Memorial Day weekend is dedicated to those we’ve lost and to the families and veterans who continue to carry their legacy forward. Your support means the world.
Even a small donation helps fund grief support, family gatherings, veteran mentorship, career training, and startup resources — all so no one who served or sacrificed is ever forgotten, and those still serving our communities can build stronger futures.
Together, we run to remember.
Together, we honor, support, empower.
With gratitude,
Sam, Team Mass Fallen Heroes Boston Run to Remember 2026
