Thermometer 65% full of $50,000 Match Challenge. All gifts matched to December 31. Icons of runners with disabilities and Achilles logo

Dear Karen,


The bedrock of Achilles is our community. The high five, the fist bump, the crowds on race day, the sound of a, “Go Achilles” from a stranger running or rolling by matter more than you can imagine.

We're a team. Donning the neon yellow Achilles shirt connects us and gives us that sense of belonging. None of it is possible without you. This week is your last chance to have double the impact while making a tax deductible year-end gift. Below is just a small snapshot of Achilles around the world this past year:


- Our Houston chapter helped lead a workout at the groundbreaking ceremony for the city's first fully accessible park.


- Ecuador not only added an ultra marathon to their Hope & Possibility themed races, they have their very own soccer team that competed in the national championships for amputees.


- International chapters found a way to complete the coveted 26.2 mile marathon despite the challenging circumstances of the pandemic, including Mongolia creating their own NYC magic and Russia, running socially distanced in the suburbs.


- Boston returned to group workouts while Utah created a 365-mile tandem bike ride capped off with a marathon.

Five hundred finish lines were crossed. Make a gift today and help us reach more people with disabilities around the world so they can uncover the athlete within. All donations made by December 31 will be matched as part of the MGL Match Challenge.


Wishing you a Happy Holidays and New Year,
