This year, Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center (BIDMC) and runners on the Grateful Nation Boston Marathon Team are committed to raising awareness and promoting health equity in our communities. Team members are fundraising for the following health disparity programs:
Healthy Champions
The Healthy Champions program at the BIDMC-affiliated Bowdoin Street Health Center, which teaches economically disadvantaged young people about the health and wellness issues that are most important within the Bowdoin-Geneva neighborhood and the role they can play in creating positive change.

BIDMC Project to Prevent and Cure Kidney Disease in African Americans
African Americans develop kidney disease at 5 times the rate of other groups. Members of the BIDMC Nephrology Division, led by division chief Martin Pollak, M.D. have figured out why this is, and want to move this work forward to develop new ways to prevent and cure kidney disease in African Americans. This work may have important implications not only for the therapeutic management of kidney disease but also the host of other serious, life-threatening conditions, such as heart failure and vascular disease, to which it is tied.

See you at the starting line!
