Join Us in Changing Lives, One Mile at a Time

StandUp for Kids – Orange County is thrilled to be an official charity partner for the 2025 Hoag Orange County Marathon!

This is more than a race – it’s an opportunity to make a lasting impact on the lives of homeless and at-risk youth in our community.

Our Goal: Raise $10,000 to provide essential support, mentorship, and resources to youth in need. Every step you take and every dollar you give brings us closer to that goal.
