Boston marathon raised $50M+ for charity in 2025, setting record
The 2025 Boston Marathon raised $50.4 million for charity, surpassing a single-year record set in 2024, the Boston Athletic Association announced. The total combines funds raised through 176 non-profit organizations in the Bank of America Boston Marathon Official Charity Program, as well as donations and fundraising from those who participated in the race. Since the official charity program launched in 1989, more than $600 million has been raised. The charity program makes up about 10% of the field in the marathon, with organizations recruiting athletes to raise money for their cause. Organizations participating in the charity program include the Boys and Girls Club of Boston, St. Jude Children's Research Hospital and World Central Kitchen. A full list is published on the association's website. 'Every year, participants and community members raise the bar and elevate the fundraising impact for meaningful causes throughout the community,' said Nicole Juri, director of development for the BAA. 'Their uplifting effect extends well beyond the 26.2-mile racecourse of the Boston Marathon. Athletes take pride in adding meaning to every step of their marathon journey, and together set new records in 2025.' In an effort to boost the fundraising, the association held a giving day on March 20, offering incentives for donations throughout the day. Nearly $2 million — $1.87 million — was raised that day. The 2025 total shows the 'power of the Boston Marathon,' said Bank of America Marketing, Digital and Specialized Consumer Client Solutions President David Tyrie. 'Anything is possible when athletes from around the world, volunteers, local businesses, supporters and many more unite in the spirit of determination, selflessness and giving.'
