Welcome

Welcome to the 2015 TCS New York City Marathon Official Charity Partner Application.

New York Road Runners is pleased to offer blocks of guaranteed entries to qualified non-profits through the Official Charity Partner Program. Please see below for details and e-mail charities@nyrr.org with questions.

Timeline
This application will close on Friday, November 7, 2014. All charities will be informed of their acceptance status in early December. At that point, accepted charities will be required to sign a contract and pay for their entries before they may begin recruiting runners. All selected charities will be expected to pay their invoice and submit a signed contract no later than March 1, 2015.

Partnership Levels
Charity Partners for the TCS New York City Marathon will be classified as a Silver, Bronze or Community level partner.
*New charities will only be offered Community level partnership at this time.

Pricing
Each guaranteed entry carries a cost to be paid upfront by the charity. Please note that this fee does not cover the runner's race registration fee which will be due when the runner registers for the race. Charities may choose to pay the registration fees for their runners and will designate that choice on the contract.

•Community Level Entries: $450 per entry (minimum 5 entries)
•Bronze Level Entries: $450 for the first 5 entries, then $575 per additional entry (minimum 15 entries total)
•Silver Level Entries: $450 for the first 5 entries, then $995 per additional entry (minimum 40 entries total)

Allocations
All new charities selected for the program will be allotted 5 entries. Returning charities will be given entries based on partnership history. We encourage you to be conservative in the number of entries you request as there will be no refunds for entries that you do not use.

Please note that completing this application neither guarantees your organization’s participation in the Official Charity Partner Program nor constitutes confirmation that your organization will receive the number of entries you request.
