Solidarity
Since the creation of the UTMB World Series, and particularly that of the Nice Côte d'Azur by UTMB, we have been committed to combining the energy of the events with their spirit of solidarity. We are driven by the desire to help everyone achieve their own victories.
In addition to charity bibs, the UTMB CARES endowment fund supports these associations. At the time of registration, each runner has the option to make a donation.
In 2026, the following project have been selected:
- Mission Trekkeurs
- SOLIDARITE 06
For your information: The donation you make will be evenly distributed between these two associations.

Mission Trekkeurs:
"On behalf of Mission Trekkeurs, its volunteers, and all the people we support, I would like to warmly thank the organization, the runners who donated, and the charity bib runners for their support. Our association works in France and abroad to help people affected by tragic life events, whether in the aftermath of a disaster or in situations of severe hardship. Trekking is at the heart of everything we do: thanks to our autonomy in the mountains and our ability to bivouac, whether in tents or sometimes in difficult conditions, we can reach and support the people who need help most. This autonomy allows us to provide practical assistance, but also something essential: our presence, comfort, and emotional support. During my involvement at Nice Côte d’Azur by UTMB, I experienced that same spirit of mutual support and encouragement while helping runners going through difficult moments. Your financial support is now one of Mission Trekkeurs’ main sources of donations. Thanks to you, our volunteers can continue their work in the field and bring hope to those who need it. Behind every one of our missions are women and men who believe that solidarity benefits not only those who receive support, but also those who give their time to help others. Your support gives us the strength to continue this adventure. So, quite simply: thank you. Thank you for your trust, your generosity, and your commitment alongside us. Together, each in our own way, we are also helping to bring the values and benefits of sport to life."
Martial LYONNAIS - President of Mission Trekkeurs
Solidarité 06:
"We would like to extend our sincere thanks for the generous solidarity donation of €6,200 granted to our association, SOLIDARITÉ 06. Thanks to your support, we will be able to fund hot meal kits (a hot dish + dessert + coffee or tea + a packet of tissues), with a unit value of €2.50, which will be distributed during our food outreach efforts-representing more than 2,480 kits. This donation will provide concrete and immediate assistance to the most vulnerable people we meet in the field, around 200 individuals at each outreach. Your solidarity, commitment, and trust are essential to continuing our work and are a valuable source of encouragement for all our teams and volunteers. Once again, thank you for your generosity and your support alongside us."
Michel ADRAGNA - Treasurer of SOLIDARITE 06
