Help raise funds for the Seattle Humane Society by doing something you love!
Charity Athlete is a program of the Seattle Humane Society that gives you the opportunity to raise funds to support our shelter animals through your participation in marathons, half marathons, 5Ks, bike races, and more!
The Seattle Humane Society cares for thousands of orphaned companion animals every year. By collecting donations to support the animals through our
The sign-up fee is $30 for the entire calendar year. We ask that each athlete commit to a fundraising goal of at least $500 per race (your $30 sign-up fee counts toward the goal of your first race). We're here to coach you to meet your goal. Unlike many fundraising programs, you will not be penalized in any way if you should fall short of your goal. Every dollar you raise goes directly towards the care of orphaned and abandoned companion animals in our community.
Charity Athletes can fundraise for any official race that you participate in. Just simply customize your personal fundraising page to reflect your most current race.
