If you’re a walker or runner or want to support the biggest sporting event in Houston while making a difference for thousands of Kids with cancer, join our team!
Fundraising for Registration (FFR): This allows runners to raise money for the Sunshine Kids Foundation. To participate in this program, runners commit to fundraising at a minimum, and in exchange, they receive an entry into their desired race.
HERO Registration: This option allows runners to obtain a guaranteed entry into the Chevron Houston Marathon or the Aramco Houston Half Marathon by purchasing their entry at a reduced price and making a one-time tax-deductible donation of at least $350 to the Sunshine Kids Foundation, an official RFAR charity partner. Additionally, HERO runners can continue fundraising for The Sunshine Kids Foundation through a personalized fundraising page.
Just Fundraise: If you don't want to participate in the race, you can still raise money for the Sunshine Kids with no required fundraising amount. When you donate or raise $350+, you are also eligible for HERO perks, which include private pre-race bathrooms, a hat, and a custom back bib, as well as a Sunshine Kids team running shirt, hat, and pin!
2026 Corporate Partnership Program: Corporations can partner with the Sunshine Kids team on race weekend. The Corporate Partnership Program actively encourages wellness, team building, and charitable giving within your organization and alongside other like-minded companies. For their participation and fundraising efforts, team members will receive amenities that will enhance their race weekend experience! We encourage you to partner with us and have participants run the Chevron Houston Marathon, Aramco Houston Half Marathon, or We Are Houston 5K.
