Why not run for a good cause?
Mehad is once again taking part in the “Dossards Solidaires” operation, a great opportunity to combine a passion for sport with a humanitarian commitment. So, see you at the Paris Half Marathon on 8 March 2026 and the Paris Marathon on 12 April 2026 to run in aid of our humanitarian health initiatives in conflict zones.
By joining the Mehad team, each runner becomes an ambassador of solidarity. Over and above the performance, this sporting adventure is a practical way of supporting our operations in Syria, Ukraine, Palestine, Yemen and Lebanon, where Mehad works every day to guarantee access to healthcare for people affected by war.
By choosing a Mehad Solidarity Bib for the Paris Half Marathon, you commit to running 21 km and collecting €210 in donations from your friends and family (i.e. €10 per km). For the Paris Marathon, take up the 42.195 km challenge and collect €420 in donations (the equivalent of €10 per km) to support Mehad.
How does a Solidarity Bib work?
1-I’m registering: book your race number for the Half Marathon here or for the Marathon here.
2-I’m committed to collecting donations: get your friends and family involved to raise the required amount (€210 for the Half Marathon, €420 for the Marathon, all of which will be donated to Mehad’s charity.
3-I’m taking part in the race: with your solidarity number, you can join thousands of other runners for a unique sporting and solidarity experience on D-Day!
Each donation made to Mehad entitles the donor to a tax reduction of 75% of the amount of the donation. For example, a donation of €100 costs just €25– an advantage that will encourage your friends and family to support you in this great cause!
Book your solidarity race number now and together we can transform these races into a powerful message of humanity and generosity that crosses all borders. Your energy and commitment will help us to step up our work with those who need it most.
