FAQs

• How much do I need to fundraise?

  If you have already secured your place in the ballot, there is no minimum fundraising target.

• What support can Transaid offer?

  Transaid can offer fundraising support in terms of brainstorming ideas, providing fundraising materials, and sharing calls to action on our social channels. We can also help with a training plan. We will provide you with a Transaid-branded London Marathon running vest/t-shirt.

• What do you mean by being a Transaid ambassador?

  As well as fundraising, we hope any marathon runner will help share our work with their networks. This could include posting about you training and fundraising journey on social media, sharing Transaid stories and impact, encouraging donations, and helping us raise awareness of how safe, available and sustainable transport transforms lives across sub-Saharan Africa.

  You don’t need to be an influencer or have a large following. We’re looking for someone who is enthusiastic about supporting Transaid and willing to champion our work throughout their marathon journey.

  Please note that this is separate to our Transaid Ambassador scheme, although you are very welcome to also join the scheme!
