2020 NEW YORK CITY MARATHON

The Glen Doherty Memorial Foundation is honored to partner with the TCS NYC Marathon for a 6th consecutive year!  We had a very successful outing in 2019 with our 4 runners raising more than $24,000! 

2020 APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS

We have purchased 5 charity spots for the 2020 TCS NYC marathon on November 1st. Application and details are below.  

Our goal is to hit $50,000 to provide scholarships to Special Operations soldiers, like Glen.  Glen Doherty was a former Navy SEAL, killed in Benghazi, Libya when our American Consulate was attacked by terrorists.  We established the Foundation to honor Glen, his love for life and dedication to this country.

We need YOU in November 2020!  We are looking for marathon runners looking to support a military cause.  Help us raise funds to provide current and former Special Ops soldiers an opportunity to transition to civilian life.  It is also a fantastic way to say thank you to our “GDMF Scholars” for their service.
