2024 Providence Marathon
Apply to join Team Make-A-Wish for the 2024 Providence Marathon & Half-Marathon
For a second year, Make-A-Wish Massachusetts and Rhode Island is the featured charity partner for the Providence Marathon and Half-Marathon! We have 30 spots available for the event on May 5, and applicants can choose which length they would like to do in support of our organization’s mission to grant life-changing wishes for children with critical illnesses. Run through historic downtown sites, Providence River views, and the city's charming surrounding neighborhoods. This flat and smooth course has become a favorite of Boston Marathon Qualifiers and first-time marathoners alike.
Team Make-A-Wish runners will receive fundraising tools and strategies, swag, gear, and a t-shirt. Runners will also be engaged in in-person and virtual team opportunities and will receive complimentary admission to our 2024 Rhode Island Wine and Wishes event.

Applications will be reviewed on a rolling basis and the deadline to apply is November 30, 2023. Please contact Michael Vieira at [email protected] or 401.781.9474 if you have any questions.
