Fundraise for a CIM-Affiliated Charity

Are you interested in raising money and awareness for an organization? CIM registration is open through select affiliated charities. These organizations have guaranteed entries available with your commitment to support fundraising efforts.

How to register through a CIM-affiliated charity:

Contact one of the charity organizations listed below.
Each registrant must commit to raising at least $500 for their organization.

An initial $250 fee is due to the CIM-affiliated charity prior to registration.
Once the fee is paid, the participant will receive an access code to register and pay for the California International Marathon at the Blue Level. The access code will allow the participant to register at the $180 Blue Level price, even if the race is sold out. Pricing includes all fees.
No refunds, transfers or deferrals will be allowed.

Participants must pay for marathon registration themselves.
Participants are required to pay for the remaining charity donation before race day, either by fundraising or paying the amount themselves.
Organizations may provide meet-ups, communications, and incentives for registered runners. Contact the organization for more information.
