How Pick.Click.Give. makes a difference

Thank you for considering a gift to benefit the Iditarod. Your gift will help us successfully stage “The Last Great Race on Earth®" and by making a gift online, you can make a difference!

The Iditarod works to promote and preserve the historic Iditarod Trail, most notably through the annual staging of the Iditarod Sled Dog Race, which runs from Anchorage to Nome, Alaska.

The Iditarod Trail, now a National Historic Trail, had its beginnings as a mail and supply route, and later became a life saving highway for epidemic-stricken Nome. The Iditarod covers over 1,000 miles of terrain, and the Sled Dog Race has been called the "Last Great Race on Earth®," winning worldwide acclaim and interest. The race pits man and animal against nature, against wild Alaska at her best and as each mile is covered, a tribute to Alaska's past is issued. The Iditarod is a tie to - a commemoration of - that colorful past.

The Iditarod relies on the philanthropy of race fans and friends to help stage the race and strengthen the future outlook of the organization. Large or small, every gift counts. All gifts help strengthen the mission of the Iditarod.
