Run for Charity

Since formalizing its charity program in 2002, the Bank of America Chicago Marathon has generated more than $38.5 million dollars for a variety of charities. Each year, non-profit organizations sign on to build teams of runners who commit to the Marathon as well as a fund-raising goal for the cause of their choice.
 
Runners registered for the race have an option to Make It More Meaningful by signing up to run for any one of the dozens of charities that partner with the Marathon each year. In 2007, 85 non-profits subscribed to the program, registering more than 6,600 runners who collectively raised more than $10.5 million.
