Dear Karen,


Thank you to all of our supporters who helped us exceed the $50,000 MGL Match Challenge! We are ringing in the new year strong thanks to you and can support even more athletes with disabilities. Now it's time to celebrate the 40th Anniversary of Achilles International!


On January 8, 1983, we started as a track club in Central Park. Today, we are a global powerhouse empowering people with disabilities of all ages to run, walk or roll.
