Since 1995, the Maui Marathon has raised more than $235,000 for youth-oriented Maui charities. Some of the ways the events raise monies for charity are: a silent auction held near the finish line, canisters placed in local businesses, pledges obtained by Maui Tacos 5K participants and Do Maui Donor Club, an exclusive group of marathon participants who raise a minimum of $500 in donations.

In addition to local community partners, The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society chapters diligently raised more than $1.3 million for national leukemia and lymphoma research in 2004 for a total of over $12 million since 1996 from the Maui Marathon alone.

Other national charities such as Team In Training (new in 2007), ASHA, NF, and Charities Challenge have participants who raise money for deserving charities.
