Dream Big! is proud to be the Presenting Sponsor of the upcoming MTC Educate A Girl Inc. – International Day of the Girl Child Soccer Tournaments that will take place over the next few weeks in Chimanimani and Mhondoro, Zimbabwe! 🇿🇼

MTC Educate A Girl is doing incredible work to empower girls and young women through education and sports by providing them with the knowledge, resources, and opportunities they need to build brighter futures.

We are thrilled to support these special tournaments by providing uniforms, equipment, transportation, and other essential resources to bring 500 young female athletes together to celebrate the power of sports, education, teamwork, and leadership.

⚽️😊Dream Big! in action at Madison Park High School in Boston. !

We loved seeing these amazing Madison Park High School girls soccer players and their fabulous coach with all of their new gear from Dream Big! — including new soccer cleats, Stanley water bottles, soccer balls, shin guards, and other equipment to help them train, compete, and have a great season! 👟⚽️

At Dream Big!, we believe every girl deserves the opportunity to step onto the field with the proper equipment and confidence she needs to play the sport she loves.

A very special thank you to several of our 2026 Dream Big! All-Star Partners whose continued generosity helps us fund important donations like this one, as well as our Sports Attire Distribution Center. 💗

Thank you to BlueCross BlueShield of Massachusetts, the Women's Foundation of Massachusetts, the Boston Red Sox, and the Boston Athletic Association for helping us to provide girls and young women with the resources they need to participate, compete, and thrive through sports.

Good luck, Madison Park! Dream Big! is cheering you on! ⚽️

🏃‍♀️🏃‍♂️ Join me in welcoming the first 8 members of the 2027 Dream Big! Boston Marathon Team! This year, Team Dream Big! will be made up of 16 inspiring and dedicated runners who will train through snow, heat, and everything Massachusetts, Florida, Illinois, and West Virginia throw their way—all while working together to raise more than $200,000 for Dream Big! and the amazing girls and young women we serve.

As they begin their journey to the 131st Boston Marathon presented by Bank of America, this is the perfect time to support their efforts and make a meaningful impact.

By donating to any one of our runners through their fundraising pages below, you are helping Dream Big! provide girls and young women from economically disadvantaged communities with the equipment, athletic footwear, sports attire, program fees, and opportunities they need to participate in sports and physical activities.

But your support provides so much more than equipment and sports attire. It creates access, confidence, opportunity, and a chance for girls to experience all that sports can bring to their health, education, and future success.

We are so excited to cheer on these incredible runners over the 7 months as they train, fundraise, and ultimately make their way from Hopkinton to Boston! 💗💪🏅
