LIVE TOWN HALL

Navigating Major Marathon Platform Changes

Major marathon organizers are implementing significant changes to their charity partner requirements. The Bank of America Chicago Marathon has announced that charity partners must use a specific fundraising platform starting in 2026. Boston and Sydney marathons have made similar moves, with more world majors likely to follow suit.

Given the potential impact on your fundraising programs and participant experience, we want to ensure you’re prepared to navigate these changes effectively.
