Boston Marathon raises Record $7.9 Million
#1
BOSTON - John Hancock's 2013 Boston Marathon Fundraising Programs raised nearly $8 million for non-profit organizations as part of the 117th running of the historic race on Monday, April 15, 2013. The record total for 2013 represents a 16 percent increase over 2012's fundraising results.

As part of John Hancock's sponsorship of the Marathon, each year the company provides non-profits with guaranteed entry numbers ("bibs") that enable funds to be raised for their organizations. More than 1,000 runners helped raise funds and awareness for 146 organizations this year.

Included in that total, 154 employee runners from John Hancock and parent company Manulife Financial raised more than $285,000 in 2013, a 44 percent increase over 2012.
