Description

The James Gang is a 501(c)(3) [EIN 82-3204236] organization founded in 2017 dedicated to pursuing opportunities for inclusion for adults living with intellectual disabilities.  The James Gang demonstrates inclusion each year through participation in local running and cycling events. This year the James Gang has been selected as a 2024 Official Boston Marathon Charity Partner.

The James Gang is holding a fundraising event on January 13, 2024 at the American Legion in Burlington that will consist of a live band, food and raffle.  This event is being organized by our two Boston Marathon runners, both Burlington natives. 

Funds raised will be used to provide grants to local adult day habilitation programs to allow the purchase of equipment to promote inclusion and friendship over a shared love of sports.  Funds will also be used to provide scholarships for adults with intellectual disabilities to participate in camps and recreational programming.

The success of our fundraiser depends on contributions from generous sponsors who donate items to be put in our raffle.  We would greatly appreciate any donation you can make.  Should you choose to donate, your business will be recognized on displays at the event as well as on the event page of our website
