Beacon Hill resident Lauren Cronin and South End resident Emily Berg are among those running in the 130th Boston Marathon on Monday, April 20, in support of the Pine Street Inn,
Cronin, who serves as Pine Street’s Associate Director of Workforce Development, said, “Running for Pine Street Inn is a dream come true. I believe deeply in Pine Street Inn’s mission to end homelessness. Knowing that the money I raise helps individuals transition from the streets and shelter into a home is an incredible honor.”

Meanwhile, Berg learned about Pine Street’s work while she lived across the street from the shelter
“I’ve seen its impact firsthand — but my connection is deeply personal. A friend of mine, whose warmth, encouragement, and kindness carried me through a challenging time, was a Pine Street resident. Running for Pine Street is my way of honoring his memory and supporting the organization that helped him touch so many lives,” said Berg.
