The Foundation is the charity affiliated to Manchester United Football Club. The Foundation works in some of Greater Manchesters most socially deprived areas with children and young people who, through no fault of their own, are at risk of poor life outcomes. Through our innovative projects and using the power of sport, our dedicated team help to transform the lives of over 20,000 participants each year.

We have ambitious plans to increase the number of young people that we work with to support over 100,000 more individuals over the next 5 years. We want to ensure that even more young people are able to overcome the barriers that they face, and are then able to go on to reach their full potential

By joining our squad of fantastic fundraisers, you will be helping to support Foundation projects which aims to improve the lives of thousands of young people across the most deprived areas of Greater Manchester and the UK.

All children and young people deserve the best possible start in life and by taking on the Manchester Marathon and supporting the Foundation, we can continue to provide these services and help to transform the futures of so many individuals.
