The Two Oceans Marathon Initiative (TOMI) was launched ahead of the 2012 event, as the philanthropic arm of the Two Oceans Marathon NPC, to provide much-needed funding for charities that match Two Oceans’ four social impact pillars:
- Education
- Environment
- Health and Wellness
- Athletics Development
As always, runners have the option of donating to TOMI when entering the TOM 2022 Event.
As a runner, you also have the option of buying a charity entry. Purchase a charity entry from any of our official charity partners.
By the end of 2020, R217 565,30 had been donated to TOMI thanks to the generosity of Two Oceans Marathon runners. Charitable organisations were invited to apply for funding after the event and after a rigorous selection process, several community-based organisations doing social outreach work aligned to each pillar above, were chosen as beneficiaries who would receive funding.
