Adopt a Team

GIVE A CHILD THE CHANCE TO RUN, DREAM, AND BELIEVE.

Every child deserves the opportunity to experience the joy of sport, the excitement of achievement, and the feeling of belonging.

Through the Beirut Marathon Association’s Adopt a Team Initiative, we invite individuals, companies, and organizations to sponsor children from orphanages, public schools, and communities affected by war and economic hardship, giving them the opportunity to participate in the Spinneys Beirut International Marathon.

For many of these children, life has been disrupted by circumstances beyond their control. Some have been displaced from their homes; others have faced financial hardship, interrupted education, and the emotional impact of conflict. More than ever, they need opportunities to reconnect, build confidence, and simply enjoy being children.

This is where you can make a difference.

WHAT DOES YOUR SUPPORT GIVE THEM?

By adopting a child or an entire team, you help provide:

A Place on the Starting Line: Race registration and participation in the Beirut International Marathon.
A Complete Race Experience: An official race T-shirt, bib, medal, and goody bag.
Transportation and Breakfast: Ensuring that every child can join the experience, regardless of where they come from.
A Day of Joy and Belonging: The opportunity to run alongside thousands of others, make friends, feel included, and celebrate their achievements.

More than a race, it is a day filled with excitement, encouragement, and unforgettable memories.

HOW CAN YOU HELP?

For just $50, you can adopt one child and give them the opportunity to be part of this special experience.

Companies, institutions, and individuals can also sponsor an entire team, helping bring children from different schools and communities together under one shared spirit of unity.

Team: 50 children at the start line - $2,500
Squad: 100 children at the start line - $5,000
Champions: 200 children at the start line - $10,000

Every contribution counts. Every child matters.

BE PART OF THEIR JOURNEY

When you adopt a team, you are doing more than sponsoring a race entry. You are giving children a reason to smile, an opportunity to feel valued, and a memory they can carry with them long after crossing the finish line.

You are reminding them that they are not alone, that their community cares, and that a brighter future is worth running towards.
