Become a Children's Champion!
Did you know that registering as a Marathon participant doesn't make you a Children's Champion? You need to take the next step by registering to be a fundraiser. The dollars raised by our Children's Champions are what fund our amazing mission.
Since 2012, the Nationwide Children's Hospital Columbus Marathon & 1/2 Marathon has raised $13 million and counting for life-saving research and care.
It's Simple:
Fundraise to help find cures, save lives and create best outcomes for kids here and around the world. Earn perks and swag along the way as you reach new fundraising milestones. No minimum fundraising requirement. Every dollar makes a difference! Choose the impact you want to make. You can designate the funds you raise to support any program at the hospital.
Children need hope, and hope needs a champion. When you raise money for Nationwide Children's, you are helping kids everywhere. Make every step more meaningful by committing to fundraise as a Children's Champion.
