By supporting our team, you are supporting sustainable development in African communities, conservation of African wildlife, as well as education programs in 26 countries.


Tusk is widely known as one of the most comprehensive charities working on the African continent today. Its holistic approach to conservation, successfully employed over the last 25 years, has achieved extraordinary results through education and community development initiatives. As a leader in the field, Tusk not only works alongside some of the best known and widely respected project leaders in Africa, but also frequently collaborates with other NGO's to effect meaningful change in the communities and areas where we are most involved.

Please help our runners reach their fundraising goals by donating here, and come out to cheer for Team Tusk on 2 November.


Attention Please Runners:

Please be aware that this page is NOT a registration page for our marathon team.

In order to become an official runner for Tusk, you must have either received a special invitation from Tusk USA, or be in contact with Tusk USA directly (tuskusa@tusk.org) to discuss the allocation of our designated spots.

Registering here creates a Crowdrise page for fundraising purposes and we are truly grateful for your support. However, creating a page does not in any way guarantee entry into the ING New York City Marathon as part of Tusk's official team or otherwise.

Tusk is an officially recognized charity in the marathon. Please note that if you already are a runner with your own spot you can still choose to fundraise for Tusk independently, and we would be delighted to assist with these efforts.
