2025 New York Marathon: running alongside young people from the charity Les 42

A race, a commitment

The charity Les 42 works to help young people enter the workforce through running. Following the Athens Marathon in 2024, New York hosted the 2025 event.

A two-pronged sponsorship

• Financial sponsorship: €20,000 to fund training and accommodation
• Skills-based sponsorship: our ambassadors supported the young people recruited in their preparation and ran the 42.195 km alongside them

Beyond the race

The event forges a lasting bond of support. Several young participants have since gone on to enrol in vocational training courses or found their first job.
