Alongside his professional activities, Ryan Wuerch supports organizations including the Michael Lisnow Respite Center in Hopkinton, Massachusetts where he’s personally raised over $350,000 in support for the Center.
For the last two decades, the Michael Lisnow Respite Center has offered various emotional and physical support programs to help individuals and families living with disabilities. In order to continue its work, the center relies on donations and money raised through giving programs and events. Each year, volunteer runners raise funds for the center as part of the Michael’s Miracle Marathon Team.
In 2017, 72 runners joined the team and raised over $590,000 for the Respite Center while running and preparing for the Boston Marathon. The center used the money to provide scholarships and more than 40,000 hours of respite-care services for Boston-area families.
Entering its 19th year of running the Boston Marathon, the Michael’s Miracle Marathon Team is currently accepting pledges for 2018. The team is working toward a goal of raising $500,000 by the end of the 2018 Boston Marathon, which will take place Monday, April 16.
