 Robert Atchinson, Lexington, MA
Bob has been a member of the Horizons for Homeless Children Board of Directors since 1998 and he and his wife Michelle remain actively involved. Bob served as Senior Vice President of Harvard Management Company for 16 years prior to founding Adage Capital Management in 2001. He currently serves on the Board of Directors of College of the Holy Cross, is on the Advisory Council to the Stanford Graduate School of Business and is a member of Strategic Grant Partners. When Bob ran the marathon in 1987, his 4 year old son Dan greeted him at the finish line saying: "We watched the race, Daddy. You didn't win." Running seems to run in the family as last year Dan ran on the Run for Homeless Children team and this year both Bob and his daughter, Katherine will be running for HHC. Bob is thrilled to be running the race with his daughter and is happy to let someone else win again! Support Bob's fundraising efforts>>

Freddie Chavda, Somerville, MA
Freddie recently moved to Boston and wanted to find an organization to volunteer with. HHC was a great match. During his four years at Marquette University, he had the opportunity to volunteer at a similar organization. When he heard about fundraising and running the Boston Marathon for HHC, it was a perfect way to help the organization in another way. The Boston Marathon will be his first marathon, and hopefully the start of many more! Support Freddie's fundraising efforts>>
