Hi friends,
This Memorial Day weekend, I’m running in Boston’s Run to Remember to honor fallen first responders and Massachusetts heroes since 9/11.
Living in Boston during 9/11 shaped my understanding of service and sacrifice in a lasting way. Through my work with 22 Mohawks, I carry those values forward every day — and this run is another way for me to give back.
I’m proud to run with Team Mass Fallen Heroes, supporting Gold Star families and helping veterans build strong futures through programs like InnoVets. Every mile I run is for those we’ve lost and the families who continue their legacy.
If you’re able, I’d truly appreciate your support — even a small donation makes a real impact.
Thank you for being part of this with me.
— Áine Lorié
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.
