Richard Charitable Foundation Inc. is a 501(c)(3) charitable foundation formed by the parents of eight-year-old Martin Richard, who was killed in the bombing at the Boston Marathon on April 15, 2013. In the days after his death, a photo of Martin holding a handmade poster that read "No more hurting people. Peace" was shared over the Internet and made many see Martin as a symbol of peace. Martin's view of peace went well beyond simply wanting to prevent violence. To Martin, peace meant togetherness, teamwork, fairness, sportsmanship, inclusion, and simple acts of kindness. Growing up in Boston's Dorchester neighborhood, Martin experienced first hand the value of community and what it means to be a good citizen, a good neighbor, a good friend. His Foundation strives to encourage both youth and adults to improve the lives of others and become bridge builders, peacemakers, leaders and change-makers by being kind, compassionate and committed to inclusion and the acceptance of diversity.
