Ready to run for kids?
Here's how to get started.

Joining the Run 4 Kids team is managed through the Missoula Marathon registration process. When you register for your race, you'll have the option to set up your fundraising page and join the team at the same time — no separate sign-up required.

Step-by-step registration
1

Register for the Missoula Marathon

Visit the Missoula Marathon registration page, choose your race, and follow the prompts. About halfway through, you'll be invited to set up your Run 4 Kids fundraising page at the same time. When you see it, click Become a Run 4 Kids Fundraiser and you're on your way.

Already registered? Sign in to your RunSignUp.com account, select the Marathon, then open the More tab in the upper right corner. In the dropdown, go to Youth Homes Fundraising › Become a Fundraiser.

2

Build your fundraising page

Give your page a name, set a fundraising goal, create a custom URL, and write a personal message. We provide default language to get you started, but we'd love for you to make it your own. Tell your supporters why you run in support of the kids and families at Youth Homes.

3

Share and start collecting donations

Once your page is live, share it with friends, family, and colleagues. Every donation goes directly to Youth Homes. Your network will show up for you.

Your free registration and half-price training

Run 4 Kids team members receive free race registration and half off Run Wild Missoula training class fees. Because the registration system doesn't support coupon codes, we ask you to pay upfront and then choose how we make it right.

Option 1

Turn your fees into your first gift

Total up what you paid and we'll add that amount to your fundraising page as a tax-deductible donation in your name. It's a great way to launch your campaign with real momentum and show your supporters you're fully committed.

Option 2

Get your money back

Training for a race comes with real costs, and we get it. If you'd rather have those fees back in your pocket, just reach out and we'll send you a reimbursement check. No questions asked.
