    Wander Project Charity Run

    Fundraise for one of our partners through any event you are running!

    Wander Project's goal is to harness the power of community to raise awareness for causes that matter to you. We primarily partner with trail races around the U.S. to offer a charity bib program: https://www.wanderproject.org/charity-bibs/. As we continue to reach a broader audience in the running community we have heard requests to fundraise for charity at events we are not officially partnered with. Now you easily can!

    How it works:

    1. You are already signed up for an event and want to use your run as a way to raise awareness for a cause you care about.

    2. Join the Wander Project Charity Run to get set up with a fundraising page and resources to support one of our partners.

    Fundraising Support

    During registration, you will be automatically prompted to create a fundraising page...you can even create your personal URL for your fundraiser! Our team will provide you will fundraising resources and is here to support you through the entire journey!

    After you complete your race, we donate 100% of the charity bib funds to the partner organization

    The Up For Air Series is a collection of endurance events created to amplify informed dialogue and empower organizations actively working on air quality solutions. Proceeds from Up For Area events are directed at carefully selected non-profit groups who demonstrate high value influence strategies. The race platform is used to expose participants and the general public to science-based material about the importance of healthy air. All events are conducted with a minimal footprint philosophy.

    Running Up For Air - Grandeur - is a 6, 12, or 24 hour winter endurance challenge that takes place on Grandeur Peak in the Wasatch Mountains. The event was created in 2012 to raise money in support of the fight for improved air quality for those who live along the Wasatch Front. The race is simply stated, run from the Church Fork picnic area up to the summit of Grandeur Peak (at 8,299' elevation) and back as many times as possible in the allotted time. While only 5.8 miles long, each lap has ~2,600' of gain and is often tougher than folks anticipate. Repeat this as many times as possible until you Refuse To Continue (RTC). The time of year (February!) is intentional as it coincides with the latter part of the winter inversion "season". Given the time of year the route is almost entirely snow covered and can easily involve harsh winter mountain conditions.
