You’ve already got a reason to run. Now you’ve got a chance to make those miles do some good beyond the finish line.
The San Francisco Marathon Charity and Fundraising Program makes it easy to put your miles toward something meaningful.
Support one of our three featured causes or tell us about an organization you’d love to run for.
Because a finish line feels even sweeter when you’re crossing it for something bigger than yourself.
We’re teaming up with three incredible organizations doing work worth running for. And we’d love for you to be part of it.
Choose a featured cause when you register for The San Francisco Marathon, then invite your friends, family, and biggest fans to support your fundraising efforts.
They bring the donations. You bring the miles. Together? You make a difference.
Help bring hope to children facing rare brain tumors. Through the International Rare Brain Tumor Registry at Children’s National Hospital, researchers are working to better understand these little-studied cancers and develop safer, more effective treatments. Your support helps fund the discoveries that could change young lives.
Every child deserves the chance to discover the joy of music. Together with our nonprofit partner, Committed 2 Community, we’re raising funds to support music programs in San Francisco public schools. Your support helps create more opportunities for students to learn, express themselves, and experience the power of music.
A classroom can open doors that last a lifetime. Ethiopian Village Schools is working to break the cycle of poverty by building sustainable schools in underserved rural communities in Ethiopia. Your support helps bring quality education within reach, creating opportunities for brighter futures, better health, and lasting change for generations to come.
Maybe it’s the nonprofit that’s been there for your family. Or a local organization making big things happen in your community. Or a cause you’ve been cheering on for years. If it matters to you, we’d love to hear about it.
