Alison King's Fundraiser:

I am on a journey to accomplish a life-long dream of running a marathon and making an impact in my community. I hope that you will come alongside of me.

I am honored to be a part of the 2016 Dream Big! Boston Marathon Team. Dream Big! is an organization that provides girls from low-income situations with the basic equipment, training and program fees to participate in sports. Dream Big! helps break down economic barriers so young girls have greater access to sports and impactful experiences that will shape their future.

As a life-long athlete, I have learned sport changes lives. Sport shaped me into the person I am today—teaching me perseverance, teamwork & resiliance. Many children, however, do not have the opportunity to participate and miss out on the opportunities to learn these life lessons. As I set out to run the Boston Marathon, it is inspiring to support Dream Big! so that more female athletes can experience the power of sport and its impact on one’s character, mindset and ultimately future.

Let’s cross the finish line together and do something great at the same time. With my supporters, my goal is to fund a new community sports program for 100 females athletes. I hope that you will participate in this journey and changes lives through the power of sport.

Thanks in advance for your support!
