Volunteering Untapped NYC & Back On My Feet (October 2026)

Volunteering Untapped NYC is on a mission to build community through volunteering. We host events every month on the second Saturday and partner with local organizations around the city. For this event, we’re partnering with Back on My Feet and running the distance of your choice (up to 10 miles) with their members as they train for the New York Marathon! If you sign up, please expect that you will be running! Wear your running shoes and gear. The run will be out and back (finishing where we started). The Volunteering Untapped NYC group will then regroup at a local restaurant to socialize. About Back on My Feet Back on My Feet empowers people experiencing homelessness and addiction to transform their lives and achieve self-sufficiency through the power of running, community, and support services. They host running Circle Ups on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday mornings at sites throughout the city. If you would like to get involved outside of this event, they are always looking for volunteers to run with their Circle Up teams. To learn more and to join their Circle Ups, visit backonmyfeet.org Socials / After Parties After the event, we go to a local bar/restaurant to socialize. Our after parties an optional way to get to know other volunteers; we encourage everyone to come out! Food and drinks will be available to purchase.
