Columbia Threadneedle Investments sponsors the Boston Triathlon as part of the firm’s long-standing commitment to Boston and support for the community. The Columbia Threadneedle Investments Boston Triathlon is proud to once again have Boston Medical Center (BMC) as its official charity partner where fundraising efforts have helped propel BMC’s mission of providing exceptional care, without exception, to all.

“We are pleased to continue our support for this important community event. We are proud to be based in Boston and to demonstrate our support for the community and the important work of Boston Medical Center. The triathlon attracts athletes from all over the country and we look forward to coming together at this year’s event in a safe, fun and uplifting way after such a challenging year,” said Leslie Walstrom, Global Head of Marketing at Columbia Threadneedle Investments. “We’ve all been through a lot recently, and I, for one, am ready to race!”

Funds raised by athletes, volunteers and others will support BMC’s efforts to advance health equity and address social determinants of health. For 25 years, BMC has stood at the intersection of social justice and health care innovation and has long recognized that much of what impacts a patient’s overall health goes well beyond traditional medicine. By expanding safety-net and health equity programs and building upon community partnerships, BMC is furthering its efforts to serve as advocates and partners for all patients. It is through this work that BMC aims to yield better health outcomes, educational advancement, economic mobility as well as housing and career opportunities so people, families and communities can thrive.
