Your race fees help our community! Since 1997, the Maine Marathon, Half Marathon and Marathon Relay and its participants have raised more than $4,000,000 for charity. Each year, about 40% of gross revenue is donated to charities.

Every year, event organizers designate a local charity as the main beneficiary of race proceeds, and entrants are invited to make additional donations to that charity. This year, 3 Maine charities were chosen: Greater Portland Health, the Ronald McDonald House Charities® of Maine, and The Locker Project. See a complete list of our past charity beneficiaries.

We make it easy for you to help out even more. When you signup to race, you can setup your own donation page.
