Service Projects

Overview

At select IRONMAN, IRONMAN 70.3, and Rock 'n' Roll Running Series events, the IRONMAN Foundation creates positive tangible impact through service projects in our local race communities.

Each service project benefits local nonprofit partner organizations, powerfully linking our athletes to the local community and leaving the IRONMAN legacy behind long after race day.

In 2019, more than 1,600 athletes volunteered at 22 service projects in IRONMAN race communities, creating change in countless lives. Check out our video recap of the service project experience and view our previous service projects below — 2025 details to come soon! 

Each service project is held at a time that works best for that specific event, with respect to the event schedule so that athletes can partake. To volunteer for select events, click on that event for more information on the service project, including time and location.
