Team Compassion: Run Your Miles for Good!

Join Team Compassion and participate in events and races worldwide for a great cause. 

Click on the navigation links above (Domestic Races, International Races) to explore race options and secure your race entry! 

Not a runner? No sweat, pun intended. You can walk a half-marathon, take a leisurely 5k stroll, or choose the DIY route and fundraise for the athletic event or activity of your choosing. Multiply your impact and recruit a team from your church or running community to fundraise and run together! 

Globally, 800 children die daily from water-born disease from unsafe water. The funds you raise for races and events now through December 2026 will provide vulnerable children living in poverty access to clean and safe drinking water, preventing life-threatening diseases and allowing them to stay in school and focus their energy on overcoming poverty. Donations will provide essential water infrastructure such as wells, rainwater harvesting systems, and water storage and filtration, in addition to vital hygiene education. 

When you hit certain fundraising benchmarks, earn fun incentives, starting with a special Team Compassion technical shirt when you raise your first $500! 

Email TeamCompassion@us.ci.org with any questions. Thank you for your support!
