Salute the Achilles Freedom Team this Veterans Day

Dear Karen,


On this Veterans Day, we thank the brave men and women who have dedicated themselves to a life of service.


Our Achilles Freedom Team is composed of veterans, military members and first responders from the U.S. and even abroad, who served on the frontlines. Achilles wants to empower them to reach the finish line. 


Achilles brings over 100 wounded, ill and injured veterans and their families together each year to compete in a series of prestigious marathon wellness weekends across the U.S. including Boston, Chicago, Detroit, Marine Corps Marathon in Washington D.C. and the New York City Marathon. If you make a gift today, you can help Achilles fund a handcycle tune-up, a race entry for a marathon, travel and more.


Join us as we support these heroes who have given so much to us.

“Achilles really showed me that despite my injuries, anything is possible if I work hard and believe that I can do it. I feel very grateful for Achilles and the Freedom Team for giving me back a piece of myself that I thought I had lost. It is the family that I didn't even know I needed after getting hurt.”





Andrew Hairston, active duty United States Marine Corps Captain

 Your gift will help us to ensure that veterans like Andrew have the opportunity to connect with fellow service members and work towards a common goal, whether it's donating adaptive equipment overseas or completing a race together.
