Austin Marathon

Giáo dục là một cuộc thi Marathon, không phải là một cuộc chạy nước rút

APIE is honored to be selected as an official Austin Marathon Gives Charity for the 2025 Austin Marathon. This year’s Marathon will take place on Sunday, February 16, 2025. Last year, we raised over $24,000 through peer-to-peer fundraising, two sponsorships, and a generous match from the Moody Foundation. We also managed the Aid Station at Mile 5 on race day with the help of 80+ energetic volunteers!

We’re looking forward to building on that momentum for the 2025 campaign, which will culminate with the Austin Marathon on February 16th, 2025! Here are a few ways you can get involved:

RUN: Sign up to run one of three distances (5k, Half-Marathon, Full Marathon) and during registration, make sure to join our team, “APIE Runners.” If you would also like to fundraise (either to receive a free race entry or just to support our mission) at the end of the race registration process you will be asked if you want to fundraise on behalf of a charity, which will allow you to create a personal fundraiser page through GivenGain. If you are interested in getting your registration fee fully comped, please reach out to us! We have a limited amount of free registration codes made available to us through the Austin Marathon’s Run Forward program that will fully waive/reimburse your race registration fee once you create a fundraising page and raise $250! Contact jjacobsohn@austinpartners.org for more info.

FUNDRAISE: APIE is an official Austin Marathon Gives charity this year, so you’ll see us featured on the Austin Marathon website. You can also choose to just go straight to APIE’s fundraising page where you can set up a unique, customizable fundraiser page that is easy share with potential donors!* Just click the “Start Fundraising” button in the upper right-hand corner of the page. You’ll be prompted to create a free GivenGain account, and then you can set up your unique page.

*This option is available to all, whether or not you’ve registered to run, plan to register to run or volunteer on race day, or just want to support from afar! For a detailed guide to getting started, check out this handy Step-by-step guide for setting up a fundraiser.

VOLUNTEER:  Join us on the course on race day! We won’t know our exact location until later this fall, but we anticipate being back at the Mile 5 Aid Station. Volunteers will help fill and distribute cups with water and energy drink to runners, clear used cups from the sidewalk and roadway, and help us with keeping the operation running smoothly. Stay tuned for the link to sign up! 

SPONSOR: We are looking for businesses and organizations to sponsor Team APIE! There are several sponsorship levels with different benefits. This is a great opportunity to get involved in the community and get your company name in front of 80,000+ runners, volunteers, and spectators on race day.

GIVE: Make a tax-deductible donation to one of our awesome fundraising champions, all of whom are linked to from APIE’s main fundraising campaign page, or alternatively, donate to the general campaign. All proceeds will go directly to our work with Austin students.

Thank you to our 2024 Austin Marathon Sponsors:
