Official Charity
Team for Kids
NYRR Foundation Team for Kids, an official NYRR charity, is an international community of adult runners who raise vital funds for NYRR Foundation, the youth services arm of NYRR. Propelled by the $11 million raised by Team for Kids since 2002, the Foundation's running-based fitness and character building programs now serve more than 75,000 at-risk children each week in almost 500 schools in New York City, nationally, and internationally. Team for Kids members receive individualized training, VIP race-day perks, spirited team camaraderie, and the opportunity to help fight childhood obesity, one of the greatest threats to our nation's health.
