What Running Up for Air does

Mission

The up for air series unites our community over a shared passion for running and a desire to drive real, lasting change in the fight for cleaner air. Through endurance events and strategic partnerships, every vertical foot run and every hour volunteered multiplies support for nonprofits dedicated to air quality solutions, turning even small donations into greater impact. We tread lightly on the trails while standing firm in our commitment to a healthier planet and cleaner air for all. Working for clean air is an endurance sport.

As stated on its FY2026 Form 990-EZ.

Each line starts at 100 in 2024, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2024, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended. The shaded band is where the middle 50% of its peers' revenue would sit, given their growth.
