Our commitment to the community

40% to charity

Cromwell Center logo

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. The main beneficiary for 2017 is the Cromwell Center for Disabilities Awareness, whose mission is to promote safe, respectful and inclusive schools and communities. 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.

“Awesome race on an incredible day! Most amazing fact is how energetic and committed all of your volunteers were, even through the 5+ hour finishers like me in my first marathon. I’all be back!!”
