The Charity Partner Program is a way to further support our mission to promote fitness and health, and to improve the quality of life for individuals and families.  Beat the Heat has two categories of Charity Partners: Designated Charity Partners and Fundraising Charity Partners. 

Designated Charity Partners are selected by an application process completed earlier in the year. A portion of the event proceeds goes towards Designated Charity Partners. 

Fundraising Charity Partners are added by completing an online application.

Race participants are given the opportunity to become a Charity Fundraiser and/or contribute to the Charity Partners at the time of event registration, further increasing the charitable contributions.

Anyone can make a donation to the charity partners at any time.  You do not need to register to make a donation.

All charities are 501(c)(3) non-profit organizations.
