The Boston Marathon – the world’s oldest marathon – route connects eight Massachusetts cities and towns… while the race captivates the entire world in the spirit of competition, camaraderie and community. Please join us in cheering on Liam McAleer, who will represent the Irish American Partnership in the 127th Boston Marathon® on Monday, April 17th as part of the John Hancock Non-Profit Program!

Liam will complete the historic race from Hopkinton to Boylston Street to raise $10,000 in support of the Partnership’s hallmark O’Neill School Grants Program, providing resources to primary schools across the island of Ireland.

I am excited to run the 2023 Boston Marathon this April with the Irish American Partnership! As an Irish-American growing up in Boston, it is surreal to think that I am able to run the legendary Boston Marathon on behalf of an organization that is so close to my heart.

I have been lucky to visit my family in County Kerry each summer and to experience the place where my mother grew up. I am so grateful to the Irish American Partnership for allowing people like me to stay connected with my heritage.

With your help, I have a tremendous opportunity to raise funds and awareness for the important mission of the Partnership. Like this historic marathon, it is important to honor our heritage and history so that we may find the strength to push forward. Thank you in advance for your support on April 17, 2023.

– Liam McAleer
