We are grateful to have been chosen by the Hartford Marathon Foundation as one of its charity partners for this year’s race. You can register as a charity runner and help raise funds to support United Way and our community at the same time.

There are also opportunities to make a donation and volunteer on race day. Support our mission to inspire and coordinate the generosity and commitment that sustains a united, thriving community.

When you apply, you are committing to fundraise for United Way of Southeastern Connecticut.
