Official Charities
Running For a Reason
Interested in fundraising for a charity? We offer many options to support worthy organizations throughout the country. With a minimum donation of financial support (varies by charity), you’ll receive a guaranteed race entry to a Big Sur International Marathon event and, in some cases, online training and/or other benefits from the charity including the camaraderie and special feeling of helping others.
