128th Boston Marathon® Presented by Bank of America Raises Record-Breaking $71.9 Million for Charitable Causes

The Boston Athletic Association (B.A.A.) announced that the total funds raised through the 2024 Boston Marathon presented by Bank of America reached a record total of $71.9 million.
Combining funds raised through the 168 non-profit organizations in the Bank of America Boston Marathon Official Charity Program – $45.7 million – with other donations and fundraising from race participants, the 2024 total surpasses the previous record of $40.2 million set last year. This brings the total charitable fundraising since the program began in 1989 to over $550 million.
Nicole Juri, Director of Development for the B.A.A. said, “We set a high bar for our fundraising at the Boston Marathon this year and I am delighted to be able to share today that thanks to our amazing runners and supporters – we did it. This amount will have a huge impact on the Greater Boston community and all those who receive support and services from these incredible organizations.”
When it partnered with the B.A.A. to become the presenting sponsor of the Boston Marathon, Bank of America was very clear about its goal: To bring the Boston Marathon’s impact and reach to new heights – both on a national and global scale – in the years ahead. Through its My Marathoner campaign, the bank amplified the goal and mission of the Bank of America Boston Marathon Official Charity Program, helping create a platform for runners to share their stories and encourage the community to get behind their causes.
The Bank of America Boston Marathon Official Charity Program comprises nearly 10% of the Boston Marathon field size, with selected organizations utilizing their entries to recruit athletes who pledge to raise funds for their cause. A full list of organizations who were part of the 128th Boston Marathon presented by Bank of America can be found on the Bank of America Boston Marathon Official Charity Program page.
