Join #MacPheeCentreTeam in the 2025 Blue Nose Marathon!

We want to let you in on a special MacPhee Centre experience. 

MacPhee Centre will have a Bluenose Marathon team of passionate supporters who will walk, run, and raise money to help us raise awareness for the Centre and provide free arts programming to youth who need it. 

As a MacPhee Centre supporter, we want to let you in on a special opportunity to help us raise awareness of our mission and the youth we serve, as well as raise money to contribute towards our free art programs and safe and inclusive space. 

What does this look like? Gather a few colleagues, set a fundraising goal, decide which race to enter, and we’ll help from there. You do not need to be an athlete to join, and no experience in fundraising is necessary. We will make sure you are set with everything you need to have a fun and successful event. 

Last year, over 60 local charities raised over $200,000 at this event. Will you join us by entering as an individual or team to help reach our goal of $10,000? All you need is a passion for the young people in our community and the value of the creative journey because that is what unites us as a team and carries us all over the finish line! 

When you launch a team for MacPhee, you’ll get the following: 

• Fundraising tools and tips 
• Recognition in MacPhee’s Annual Report, website and on social media
• Team spirit and camaraderie
• Movement for you body
• The heartfelt gratitude of MacPhee’s youth that you’re stepping up for (literally)
