Every child deserves the strongest start.
The Pediatric Development Center is a non-profit that was founded in 1982. Of the 60 Early Intervention programs in Massachusetts, PDC is unique in that it is the only independent, free-standing program of its kind without a larger organization as an umbrella agency.
PDC is the only organization in Central and South Berkshire County that provides the services we offer. Local pediatricians trust us and refer families to us so that we can work together to support every child’s development.
"The Finish Line Fund" presented by The Josh Billings RunAground and Mill Town Foundation
The Great Josh Billings RunAground is a cherished Berkshire Tradition that began in 1977. The triathlon brings our community together in the spirit of good natured competition and camaraderie.
Mill Town Foundation has partnered with the Josh Billings RunAground to introduce a charitable fundraising initiative that empowers individual competitors and teams to raise funds for Berkshire- based nonprofits.
This program enhances the Josh’s tradition of community impact by connecting athletic competition with local philanthropy, channeling funds to support Berkshire County nonprofits.
The Finish Line Fund is a peer-to-peer fundraising program that:
- Integrates charitable giving into race registration
- Provides personalized fundraising pages for every participant
- Connects athletes with vetted Berkshire nonprofits
- Distributes 100% of donations directly to chosen organizations
- Celebrates impact alongside athletic achievement
The Great Josh Billings RunAground
Each year, The Josh Billings RunAground, a 501(3)c organization, shares a portion of proceeds generated by registration fees and donations to the Berkshire United Way. This remains unchanged in 2026.
New for 2026, Mill Town Foundation has partnered with The Josh Billings RunAground to offer a community impact initiative titled, "The Finish Line Fund".
Racers choose from many of the Berkshire-based nonprofit organizations that are dedicated to helping the Berkshire communities every day and are deserving of recognition and support.
