Dedicate your Marine Corps Marathon participation to a cause and register for the 35th MCM or MCM10K through one of the fine MCM Charity Partners. More than 60 charities will host thousands of runners in the MCM on October 31. These runners seek not only to finish "The People's Marathon" but to meet goals in generating awareness and funds of a personal cause. Runners are encouraged to make direct contact with the MCM Charity Partners to obtain program details and registration information. Before the MCM makes entries available to the public and long after the marathon is closed out, MCM Charity Partners are able to register runners and may also provide marathon-support services.
Individuals wanting to make a donation to a charity organization must contact the charity directly. MCM is not involved in any fundraising components of these programs.
Charitable organizations interested in the 2011 MCM Charity Partner Program should contact Tami Faram, MCM Community Relations Coordinator at 703-432-1840 or tami.faram@usmc.mil. No additional charity partnerships will be accepted for 2010.
