About the Charity Bib Program

Adding Meaning to Miles

The Mass Half Charity Bib Program gives nonprofit organizations an opportunity to bring their supporters together through running while raising funds and awareness for the causes and communities they serve.

Selected Charity Partners receive a guaranteed allocation of race bibs to assign to fundraising runners. Through peer-to-peer fundraising, runners can support a nonprofit organzation they care aboutwhile helping their Charity Partner engage new and existing supporters. 

But the opportunity goes beyond fundraising. The Charity Bib Program brings people together around causes that matter and helps make every mile more meaningful.

Run for a cause. Rally for community. Give meaning to your miles. 

Run for a Charity Partner

We're proud to partner with select nonprofits to support meaningful causes through The Mass Half. If you'd like to run for one of our Charity Partners, connect directly with the organization to request one of its reserved bibs.

How it works:

  1. Choose a Charity Partner you would like to support.
  2. Contact the organization directly to request one of its allocated race bibs.
  3. If approved, the organization will provide you with a code to complete your race registration and fundraising.

Running for a Charity Partner is a meaningful way to support a cause you care about while giving meaning to your miles. Reach out to a participating Charity Partner to get started.


Run for United Way of Central Massachusetts

You can also choose to fundraise directly for United Way of Central Massachusetts. Your fundraising helps connect people and resources to advance youth opportunity, financial security, healthy communities and community resilience across Central Massachusetts.

All runners are welcome to fundraise for UWCM in addition to their registration. Runners who commit to a fundraising minimum and successfully meet that goal will have their registration fee reimbursed.

To participate, simply select the UWCM fundraising option during registration and commit to your fundraising goal. We'll provide the tools and resources you need to get started.

Run for Community. Rally your people. Give meaning to your miles.
