I am beyond excited to be running the 2026 Boston Marathon and fundraising in support of LiveFitArmy, an organization dedicated to bringing health and wellness resources to the Boston community—especially to those who may not otherwise have access to them. I am also running in support of Anna’s Pals, a cause that is incredibly close to my heart. Anna’s Pals is a local nonprofit with a mission to support pediatric oncology patients and their families. The organization was founded by the Jerome family in honor of their daughter, Anna, who tragically passed away from leukemia in 2014. Their work provides meaningful support to families during some of the most challenging moments of their lives.

I began running just over two years ago, and it has truly changed me—teaching me resilience, discipline, and balance, both on and off the road. Being able to run the Boston Marathon while supporting these two impactful organizations is an opportunity I am incredibly proud of. All funds raised will be donated directly to LiveFitArmy and Anna’s Pals to help them continue their important work in the community and for families facing pediatric cancer.

Any donation, big or small, is deeply appreciated. Your support truly means the world to me and will help make a difference for these organizations. If your employer offers donation matching, matching contributions can be submitted directly through the charity’s donation page (linked below). Please indicate in the memo line that the donation is for Andrea's Boston Marathon Fundraiser.
