Indego Africa is thrilled to announce we are now an official charity partner of New York Road Runners and the TCS New York City Marathon!!

This iconic race will take you through all five of New York City's boroughs while helping to raise awareness and critical funds for our mission.

Through this partnership, each mile you run can help to transform the lives of marginalized women, their families and communities in Ghana, Rwanda and in Rwandan refugee camps.

Running for Economic Inclusion

Applications for Team Indego Africa are now closed.

We are blown away by your outpouring of interest! With only 3 spots to give and so many inspiring applications, selecting our team of runners was a tough decision.

Thank you to all our applicants for your commitment and enthusiasm. We'll be cheering for you and wish you the best of luck.

We will be forming a team in 2026, so please reach out again if you are interested. You can stay in the loop by following us on social or signing up for our newsletter.
