MICHAEL VOIGHTS JOURNEY TO BOSTON ! FUNDRAISING !

Give Now

From the moment I started running long distances everyone always asked me if I was going to run boston? The answer was always “anything is possible” in the future! After two marathons and countless other races and the urge to push myself I started my journey to get into the  Prestigious Boston race. I thought I would just have to be lucky or get really really fast but then I found the stepping strong team! People take their lives for granted but im a firm believer in giving back. Thats why i am apart of multiple charity’s and now supporting the 2025 stepping strong marathon team ! 

With a mission of Turning tragedy into hope. A message I’m able to believe and support in My running! 

Whether you’re a normal everyday person that’s experienced a traumatic event or an American hero injured in the line of duty you need the best cutting edge care and innovative technology to get you back on track! Being a board member for uconn coach geno auriemmas charity “geno for the kids” for the connecticut children’s hospital I know first hand what a charity team can do and what private funding can bring to a family or person in need. 

The mission of The Gillian Reny Stepping Strong Center for Trauma Innovation is to catalyze trauma innovation for injured civilians and military heroes, through multidisciplinary investigative collaborations across the continuum of trauma care, from prevention to treatment and recovery.

Things like advanced Research , Additional training to benefit doctors, support for tragedy survivors , collaborations for futuristic procedures are made possible as a result of the countless donations toward the Gillian Reny stepping strong foundation. 

If possible, help me reach my goal, by donating to the Stepping Strong 2025 marathon team, a team I am proud to be a part of.  

Below from stepping strong !! A center for innovation 

In 2013, Boston was changed forever when a beautiful Marathon Monday turned into a senseless tragedy. Gillian Reny, then a high school senior, was one of 39 critically injured patients rushed to Brigham and Women’s Hospital, where doctors and nurses saved her life and legs. With gratitude to the Brigham, the Reny family established The Gillian Reny Stepping Strong Center for Trauma Innovation to help other trauma patients regain their strength and ability to step strong once again.The Gillian Reny Stepping Strong Center for Trauma Innovation aims to catalyze trauma innovation for injured civilians and military heroes through multidisciplinary investigative collaborations across the continuum of trauma care, from prevention to treatment and recovery. Stepping Strong-funded initiatives are making a profound impact on trauma survivors and their families worldwide. The center has raised more than $30 million to fuel trauma research, advance education, build community, and inspire advocacy. But much more needs to be done.Trauma is a neglected global epidemic. According to the Centers for Disease Control:
  • Trauma is the number one cause of death for people 44 or younger, ahead of cancer and heart disease.
  • Traumatic injuries comprise 40% of visits to emergency departments.
  • More than $2 trillion per year is spent on decreased productivity, work loss, and medical costs due to traumatic injuries.
  • Despite the significant burden of trauma, less than 2% of federal funding is allocated toward trauma research, inhibiting our ability to understand how to prevent, treat, and improve recovery from traumatic injury.
The Stepping Strong Center remains committed to serving as a leader in trauma research and innovation to bridge this gap and advance the field of trauma care. When you support a member of the Brigham's Stepping Strong Boston Marathon Team, you are helping the center turn tragedy into hope for civilians and military heroes worldwide who have suffered devastating traumatic injuries.
Thank you for supporting this extraordinary group of runners and continuing to honor the Boston Strong spirit that still defines our city today.
