United Help Ukraine, with the support of the Embassy of Ukraine in the United States, is honored to be the official sponsor of Team Ukraine at the 50th Annual U.S. Marine Corps Marathon. Seven defenders, including active-duty Ukrainian soldiers and wounded veterans arriving directly from the front lines, will compete in the MCM’s 42K race. After crossing the finish line, they will return home to continue defending Ukraine.
Help us cheer on Team Ukraine!
Show your support for their courage, resilience, and dedication to Ukraine. Bring Ukrainian and American flags, and consider purchasing a Jersey to match the team uniform. Our main gathering point is Marker 17, but you can also join us at Marker 23 near the finish line to cheer the runners on their final stretch from 11am- 2pm.
Let’s make the crowd roar with Ukrainian pride — they need our cheers, our strength, and our inspiration. Let’s show Team Ukraine they are never running alone!
