Mission
Rogue Running exists to help American runners and other athletes experience the joy of sport and attain their athletic goals. The Malawi Project, initiated by staff and coaches at Rogue, allows us to spread that support to runners and their families in one of Africa's poorest countries, where runners have no access to shoes, clothing, nutrition, coaching or equipment.
Programs
The Malawi Project is currently Rogue's only fundraising project; however, if it is a success, we intend to create an ongoing partnership with Malawian athletes to continue to support their careers and communities.
