Every October since 2017, Jamii had a cheering site as part of the Toronto Waterfront Marathon in the St Lawrence Neighbourhood. Starting from 2024, we are taking it to a next level by taking a part in the Charity Challenge of the TCS Toronto Waterfront Marathon: We are running, walking or strolling the marathon with our community!
SIGN UP & SHOW UP
Start by registering for the TCS Toronto Waterfront Marathon by using this link and selecting Jamii as your charity. Choose your race: 5K, half marathon, full marathon, or virtual. Then create your fundraising page. You can join an existing team or start your own to support a specific Jamii program. Once you're in, we’ll be here to support you along the way.
BONUS: Raise $300 or more and Jamii will reimburse your registration fee.
RAISE & RALLY
Your individual fundraising goal is $1,000. With 30 or more participants, we’re aiming to raise $30,000 for Jamii’s free arts programs. Share your story, invite your network to support you, and use your page to track progress. We’ll provide tools, templates, and encouragement to help you along the way. You’re not fundraising alone!
TRAIN & SUSTAIN
MOVE & GROOVE
Training is up to you, but you won’t be on your own. Jamii will organize casual group walks for 5K participants and help connect runners who want to form pace groups. We’ll send occasional check-ins, updates, and motivation to keep you moving. Whether you're walking, jogging, or going the distance, we’re here to keep you going.
Race weekend is October 18–19, 2025. Put on your Jamii team shirt and move at your own pace. Walk it, run it, roll it, or stroll it. Join the 5K group walk or coordinate with others in your category. Expect cheers, connection, and a shared sense of purpose. You’ll be part of something real, something community-driven, and something worth showing up for.
