Since 1979 the Boston Ronald McDonald House has served as a home-away-from-home for children with cancer and their families. As an essential part of their overall care, the House provides its guests with low-cost and convenient accommodations in a safe and comfortable home-like setting. Here, children, families, and caregivers find comfort and support among staff, volunteers, and other families facing the life-changing realities of childhood cancer. For this race, all money raised will go toward our endowment fund, so in the future we will be more financially secure, as we will be less reliant on day to day donations. Thank you for your support.
