My name is Ed Smith and I am proud to be running the 2024 Boston Marathon on behalf of Boston Children’s Hospital/Miles for Miracles and the Credit Unions Kids at Heart Team.
Credit Unions Kids at Heart is a collaborative charitable organization of the credit union community throughout New England. Together, we raise money for research aimed at the prevention, treatment, and, one day, cure of pediatric neurological disorders. Our fields of interest are pediatric epilepsy and seizure disorders, Moyamoya disease, Cerebral Palsy, and pediatric brain cancer.
Our Team’s fundraising goes directly to medical research and clinical trials, performed at Boston Children’s Hospital and in partnership with their research affiliates. Boston Children’s Hospital has led the way in superior innovations in treatment and care since their founding 154 years ago. Our medical investigator partners believe, as we do, in the remarkable resilience of children, and in a future where every child can enjoy good health. We are proud to partner with their world-class research enterprise to help make their important discoveries and innovations available to children worldwide.
I am running this year because this is aligned with the greatest need I know to help kids with these challenging conditions.
I am proud to partner with my Patient Partner Everett!
Thank you for supporting my run, supporting my Team, and for joining our mission to help children lead healthy and happy lives.
