Our commitment
We move Berlin.
At the GENERALI BERLIN HALF MARATHON, we inspire more than 35,000 participants to lead an active lifestyle. At the same time, we create considerable economic value in the capital.
In addition to athletes from over 100 nations, numerous spectators follow the event along the route - and generate revenue. For example in the catering sector. What is more, wherever possible, we also favour regional service providers and producers for our event. In addition, we cooperate with a number of Berlin hotels so that special contingents are available for our event.
We help where the shoe pinches
Together with the Berliner Stadtmission, we collect well-preserved running clothes and shoes to pass on to people in need.
Whether well-preserved hoodies, training jackets or pants - much of what lies unused in runners' wardrobes is urgently needed by others. All the discarded clothing and running shoes we collect together with the Berliner Stadtmission benefit needy and unhoused people who depend upon the support of such clothing closets. This both helps reduce social inequalities and conserves resources, as the clothes and shoes get a longer life.
