In 2014, every single TCS New York City marathoner, supporter and volunteer can unite to contribute towards the goal of raising funds for charities across the world.

Historically, the marathon has raised a massive amount of money for charity, and our goal is to bring the entire running community come together to get involved. When you run 26.2 miles for a charity, you are not only crossing the finish line for yourself, but for so many that will be impacted by your hard work and contribution!

New York Road Runners and CrowdRise are encouraging every single runner to fundraise. With hundreds of charities to choose from, runners can support a cause that is most meaningful to them. So this year, don’t just run for yourself; run for research, run for a cause, run for a cure and run to make the world a better and healthier place for all.

Starting a CrowdRise fundraiser does not guarantee you a slot in the 2014 TCS New York City Marathon. If you need a guaranteed entry, you must contact the charity before setting up a fundraising page. You can also start a charity page on CrowdRise if you are not an official charity, but you will not receive guaranteed entry into the TCS New York City Marathon. You can find a list of participating charities here and register to run today!
