We’re asking each Marathon runner to commit to a minimum fundraising goal of $850 and each 10K runner to commit to a fundraising goal of $250. By helping to raise funds for the USO, you’ll receive a variety of benefits. Perhaps more importantly, you will have made a positive difference in the lives of our troops and their families.
If you get into the Marathon or 10K on your own, but would like to raise funds for the USO anyway, let us know and we’ll treat you just like one of our sponsored runners (race support, etc). All proceeds raised by Team USO will go directly to the organization to help fund vital programs and services for our men and women in uniform and their families.
By helping to raise funds for the USO, you’ll receive a variety of benefits as well as support an organization that helps improve the quality of life for U.S. troops and their families.
