TCS New York City Marathon
Camp Shriver is thrilled to be an Official Charity Partner of the 2026 TCS New York City Marathon! We will host a team of 15 runners who will raise funds to support Camp Shriver at UMass Boston, an inclusive program for children with and without disabilities.
Members of Team Camp Shriver will raise $5,500 to help low-income children with and without disabilities participate in a three season inclusive sports program. Together, we will ensure that all children, with and without disabilities, have an opportunity to learn, grow and have fun as equals.
Applications for our 2026 TCS New York City Marathon will open on March 4, 2026!
Members will receive:
- Guaranteed entry into the 2026 TCS New York City Marathon,
- Training support provided by Coach Rick Muhr Bio,
- Marathon Team Handbook with training tips and fundraising support,
- one-on-one phone calls / meetings with a development professional to help runners achieve their fundraising goals,
- New York City Marathon swag, to be determined,
- Camp Shriver running gear, and
- additional team meetings and events to be announced.
Applications for Team Camp Shriver are accepted on a rolling basis until the team is full. Completion of the application does not guarantee team admission. A committee will review all applications and will be looking for 1) commitment to Camp Shriver and/or the mission of Camp Shriver, 2) fundraising pledge and ability to achieve fundraising pledge, and 3) ability to train for and complete a marathon.
