Marine Raider Foundation

Please support! My brother and I are joining the MILES FOR MARSOC Community Athlete Program to honor the service and sacrifice of Marine Raiders, both past and present, one race at a time.

This pandemic period has been hard on us all - but especially those who have made sacrifices most of us cannot imagine.My brother and I are running this race with the intent on raising awareness for the foundation as well as funds to support the mission of the foundation. Proceeds raised directly support wounded, ill, injured and transitioning Raiders, their families, and Gold Star families.

As a Community Athlete, each mile I run, walk, hike, ride or swim will both physically challenge us and help the Marine Raider Foundation move one step closer to improving the lives of Raiders and their families.

Your support will make a positive impact in the Marine Raider community by showing our warriors and their families that you are grateful for their service and that they will never be forgotten.

MILES FOR MARSOC was created in 2012. More than 175 men, women and children from all over the world have participated as Community Athletes, helping us raise $500,000!
