Run For All 3 was a part of Boston For All Week (2019) and it was a huge success! Over the course of the week, we raised over $20,000 in support of three fantastic organizations:
- The Boston Immigration Justice Accompaniment Network (BIJAN) – providing legal representation and advocacy to immigrants in Boston facing detention and deportation.
- Redes en Acción Venezuela – a local organization helping Venezuelan refugees settling in the Boston area.
- Komera – an international organization promoting personal empowerment and education for girls in Rwanda.
We were honored to work with City Councilor Matt O’Malley, State Representative Nika Elugardo, and community partners to host a week-long festival of inclusion and generosity on June 9-15, 2019.
And also a big thank you to our generous sponsors of Boston For All Week, without whom we wouldn’t be able to do this work!

“Boston For All gave visibility to the struggle of Venezuelans relocating in Boston in the midst of the largest migration crisis in the Americas. Their fundraising and visibility support to the work that Redes en Acción Venezuela does, and we could not be more thankful to their volunteers and their phenomenal mission.”
