A little Team World Vision history

Team World Vision began in 2005 with just 95 runners at the Bank of America Chicago Marathon. Now, we are the largest charity at that event, and have grown to have a presence at 12 other races across the country.

Since its start, our team members have raised over $5 million for clean water projects. And in 2011, over 6,000 team members will be running and raising money to help continue to provide clean water in Africa and Haiti. Won’t you join us?
