Waltham resident Chris Young is asking for donations for his run in the Boston Marathon to benefit the Waltham Boys & Girls Club, according to his GoFundMe post.
"This year I am proud to be running the marathon for the Waltham Boys and Girls Club. The Boys and Girls Club is a place where youth development comes first. At the club kids can eat, play, study, swim, sing, and most importantly be themselves in a safe and supportive environment. The cost of joining the club is only $15 per year and the operating costs of the club rely almost entirely on donations. I am proud to be on the first ever Waltham Boys and Girls Club Marathon team and I thank you in advance for investing the future of our youth," his post reads.
Young's fundraising goal is $5,000.
