How will TOM beneficiaries be selected post TTOM 2024?
After each event, TOMI invites charitable organisations to apply for funding to implement a proposed project aligned to one of TOMI’s pillars of education, environmental sustainability, health and wellness, and athletics development.
In a move to support more charities, runners are able to donate directly to the Two Oceans Marathon Initiative, as the charitable entity of the TOM NPC, and select the impact pillar they would ideally like to see supported. These individual donations were once again made upon entering the 2024 event.
Beneficiary applicants will be shortlisted by the TOM NPC TOMI Committee, after which the TOM board will select the final projects that will receive support funding.
