From a gift to a start line
Support reaches athletes as approved expenses: entry fees paid, shoes bought, a bus seat booked, a physio appointment covered. Here is the path it takes.
You give
Monthly or one time. Recurring gifts are the most useful, because seasons are planned months ahead.
We equip
Shoes, entry fees, local transport, coaching, and medical care through our clinic partners in Oaxaca.
They compete
Athletes train and race, and several have gone on to coach and lead programs of their own.
Honest about the money
100% of designated donations received by Oax Sport fund approved expenses for the selected athlete, team, program, or project. Running experiences and unrestricted donations help cover operating costs and other areas of greatest need.

The programs
Athlete support
Gear, medical care, nutrition, diagnostics, recovery, and competition costs for individual athletes.
Youth and community
Basketball workshops, self-defense sessions, leadership, and community runs across the Central Valleys.
Teams and competition
Travel, entry fees, uniforms, and coaching so teams can reach meets beyond Oaxaca.
Running experiences
Athlete-led runs and rides for visitors. The income helps cover operating costs.
Run Oaxaca with the locals
Guided runs and rides through the Central Valleys and the Sierra Norte, hosted by our own athletes. Booking one supports the roster and helps cover the operating costs behind it.
Back an athlete every month
A recurring gift lets us plan a season instead of reacting to it. Change or cancel at any time. One-time gifts are just as valuable and support approved charitable expenses based on the purpose you select.
