About:
Medfield Lacrosse rallied behind the @HuntersRun5k event to support the Williams family and honor Hunter’s legacy of hope and compassion.
Hunter’s Run Foundation, founded by Kristen Williams, stands as a beacon of hope in raising awareness for organ donation. Inspired by Kristen’s son, Hunter, who bravely faced health challenges, including two double lung transplants and cancer, the foundation remains steadfast in its mission despite their loss.
For the 9th consecutive year, Hunter’s Run Foundation has been raising funds for the Boston Children’s Pediatric Transplant Center. These donations offer vital support to families with sick children, assisting with housing, food, and more during their most challenging moments.
Hunter, the brother of Logan Williams, a senior and classmate of the lacrosse players, tragically passed away in middle school. Since then, the Williams family has organized the run to raise funds for Donate Life and other hospitals.
In a touching display of solidarity, the lacrosse Captains took the initiative to organize the team for participation in the event this past Sunday.
