Hello everyone! 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:
1. Remembering and honoring those who gave everything — police officers, firefighters, EMS personnel, and military heroes from Massachusetts
2. Supporting the families they left behind (Gold Star families)
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, and veteran mentorship — all so no one who served or sacrificed is ever forgotten.
Thank you for reading my story.
Together, we run to remember.
Together, we honor. support. empower.
With gratitude, Megan - Team Mass Fallen Heroes Boston Run to Remember 2026
Boston's Run To Remember
Massachusetts Fallen Heroes and InnoVets participate in the Run To Remember to raise awareness and vital funds for their programs supporting Gold Star families and Veterans. Runners, spectators, and community members come together on Memorial Day weekend to celebrate service, sacrifice, and resilience — bridging the military and first-responder communities through a shared expression of gratitude. Whether you're lacing up for the half-marathon, the 5-mile run, or joining as a supporter, this partnership embodies the spirit of Honor. Support. Empower. — ensuring that the sacrifices of fallen are never forgotten and that veterans and their families receive the opportunities and care they deserve. Join us in Boston for a meaningful run that remembers, honors, and builds a stronger future for our heroes.
At Massachusetts Fallen Heroes we memorialize our fallen and we provide programs and services for our Veteran and Gold Star Family community. Help us honor the memories of the Massachusetts men and women who served since September 11, 2001 and gave their lives for our nation. Founded in 2010 by combat veterans, Gold Star families, and first responders, MFH built the iconic Massachusetts Fallen Heroes Memorial in Boston’s Seaport District and has since expanded to deliver programs, events, and direct assistance to Gold Star families and veterans. InnoVets InnoVets is the veteran empowerment and business accelerator program that grew out of Massachusetts Fallen Heroes (and is now often presented as its flagship initiative and rebranded focus for veteran programming). Its mission centers on equipping veterans, Gold Star family entrepreneurs, and the military-connected community with the skills, mentorship, resources, and opportunities to thrive — particularly through entrepreneurship, career development, and innovation.
