2026 Race Beneficiaries

Each year, the volunteer organizers of the Maine Community Bank Maine Marathon select a group of charitable organizations in our community to receive proceeds from the race. Below are the 2026 race beneficiaries. All of these amazing organizations benefit directly from your race registration fee — and they are all among the list of charities you can make additional donations to when signing up for any of this year’s events.

Camp No Limits

Camp No Limits serves children and young adults with limb loss and limb differences. The Camp provides education, mentorship, and adaptive recreational experiences that build confidence, connection, and independence.

Day One

Day One supports Maine youth and families through substance use prevention, treatment, and mental health services, helping young people navigate some of life’s most difficult challenges with care and stability.

Nanna’s House

Nanna’s House supports children entering the foster care system by providing age-appropriate supply kits that help meet immediate needs and bring a small measure of comfort during moments of transition.

Pine Tree Society

Celebrating 90 years of service, Pine Tree Society creates opportunities for Maine children and adults with disabilities to live full, engaged lives through programs that promote independence, communication, and inclusion.

“Since 1997, this effort has enabled us to contribute nearly $9 million to deserving causes. Moreover, the marathon weekend significantly benefits the local economy, generating an economic impact exceeding $2.3 million. We value the substantial support of our esteemed partner, Maine Community Bank, who help make our efforts possible.”
