We are proud to be an official charity partner of the Eversource Hartford Marathon and Half Marathon. We welcome participants to join our team by running, donating, volunteering, or fundraising. Runners, virtual or in-person, can use their marathon, half marathon, Team 26.2 relay or Charity 5K as a fundraiser for The Riley Farm Rescue!

Not a runner? No problem! We’re looking for volunteers to represent The Riley Farm Rescue and help manage the event as course monitors or other positions.

Joining our herd is also made easy by donating directly to our HMF fundraiser or an individual runner’s fundraiser.
