About the Charity Program
![]()
The Los Angeles Marathon Charity Program is an opportunity for nonprofits to utilize the Los Angeles Marathon, Charity Half Marathon and LA 5K as a platform to create awareness about their mission and raise funds for their organization.
Running or walking a marathon, half marathon or 5K is a memorable journey that can be so much more impactful when doing it for charity. Our charity partners provide a purpose for people to cross the finish line - for the first time or the 50th. In the history of the program, our Los Angeles Marathon partners have raised more than $76M for their causes!
