Canton, MA A team of runners from Gray, Gray & Gray, LLP, a consulting, accounting and business advisory firm, participated in the 20th annual Canton Road Race on Sunday, September 29, 2024.
A crowd of nearly 500 runners competed in events including 5K and 10K races, with a corporate challenge and a kids’ 1-mile fun run, plus a post-race food feast and gathering.
Gray, Gray & Gray donated $1,000 in support of the race sponsor, the Canton Association of Business and Industry Charitable Foundation.
“Events like the Canton Road Race are an excellent opportunity for us to give back to the community in which we live and work,” said Jim DeLeo, leading partner of Gray, Gray & Gray. “To see so many of our neighbors and team members running and enjoying the beautiful day is wonderful, and it is made even better knowing that their efforts are supporting so many worthy charities.”
Over the past 20 years the Canton Road Race has raised hundreds of thousands of dollars for the Canton Association of Business and Industry Charitable Foundation, which distributes 100% of race proceeds to support local charities, including the Pappas Rehabilitation Hospital for Children (formerly the Massachusetts Hospital School), Canton Police and Fire Departments, and the Canton Food Pantry.
