Youkilis Hits for Kids Team Runs Boston Marathon

Last Thursday we worked with Kevin Youkilis' Foundation, Hits for Kids to coordinate a Pre Marathon Fundraiser at La Verdad and it was a HIT! Youk's runners were there to support LoveLane and the Italian Home, two amazing groups, doing amazing work with kids.

La Verdad, a mexican restaurant located right across the street from the historic Fenway Park, was the perfect setting for the fundraiser. Throughout the event, guests enjoyed delicious mexican hors d'oeuvres and sipped on Boston's Harpoon Beer, while partcipating in both a silent and live auction with Michael Saperstein.

A big thanks to Rick Bern who captured the event and all the details. Greg Hill of WAAF was the emcee for the event while DJ Felix provided the festive music.

Without a doubt, the highlight of the night was when Lovelane and the Italian Home spoke about what they have been able to accomplish with the support of Youk's Kids. Another highlight was when the runners got up on stage! They were all amazing and did so much to support the charity. Congratulations to everyone involved!!
