A fantastic and easy way to raise money for Concern is through a sponsored walk/run. These can be as small as 2km walk/run in your town, or as big as an international event like the New York Marathon. Walks and runs are constantly organised throughout Ireland and the UK, so check out which are of interest to you.

Help make a vital difference
Concern Worldwide is an international humanitarian organisation dedicated to reducing suffering and ending extreme poverty. Since the beginning, over 40 years ago, our focus has been on improving the lives of the poorest people. By taking part in a marathon and raising money, your concern lets us go the extra mile to reach our goal.
As well as raising vitally needed funds we’ll also offer you great support, both in terms of fundraising and training, including:
- Great fundraising and training tips
- 4 FREE running seminars in Dublin with John Treacy and Catherina McKiernan
- A free online fundraising service
- Sponsorship forms and other fundraising materials
- A Concern t-shirt or breathable running vest depending on the event
- A cheering support team on the day!
