Herren Project Receives $25,000 Donation as Part of Hale Family $26.2 Million Giving Effort Tied to the Boston Marathon
Herren Project was one of 72 organizations that received a donation from Rob Hale and his wife, Karen, as part of a $26.2 million giving effort tied to the Boston Marathon. Hale, co-founder and President of Granite Telecommunications LLC ran the marathon for the first time on April 15.
“We are incredibly grateful to Robert and Karen Hale for continuing to recognize the critical need for addiction support and resources in our community. We are grateful for their ongoing support of our mission and for helping us to provide vital life-saving resources to those directly impacted by the disease of addiction” said Executive Director, Bonnie Sawyer.
The donation will support Herren Project in helping as many individuals and families as possible directly impacted by the addiction epidemic.
“Recognizing the immense impact the fabled Marathon has had on our proud city, we are humbled to be able to make these gifts to wonderful organizations throughout our region that support our community,’’ said Hale in an email letter to local charities sent moments after he crossed the finish line at Copley Square. “Please take and use this gift to further your vital mission. Together we make Boston Strong.”
