YOU’VE GOT OPTIONS
OPTION ONE
The Wander Project (TWP) is a nonprofit organization empowering individuals to make an impact in the communities they run and play in. We focus our efforts on enabling athletes to use running as a mechanism for raising awareness and funds for causes close to their heart. Our supporters raise awareness for a wide range of topics including environmental sustainability, mental health, indigenous voices, physical disabilities, and much more.
Empowering Individuals: Our charity bib program enables individuals to participate in various events around the US to raise awareness for the charity of their choosing. In 2023 we had 215 athletes run in events from 5K to 250 miles to raise over $400,000 for the communities that inspire them. We have some perks / incentives for this one too if you become a charity runner!
NOTE: This is open to our sister organization, ReNew Earth Running #LegsForLandBack runners as well when they sign up through The Wander Project. Half of what you raise, will be donated to RER!
