LOCAL CHARITIES

ARE YOU A LOCAL GEELONG CHARITY?

We want every step taken at the Geelong Running Festival to mean something more.

If someone is going to challenge themselves to run a Marathon, Half Marathon, or 6.5km event, why not make the journey even more meaningful by fundraising for a cause greater than themselves? 💙

To help make that happen, the Geelong Running Festival is offering up to 5 FREE entries per Geelong charity, with a minimum fundraising target of $500 per participant. That’s up to $2,500 raised for your organisation.

We’re looking for individuals who embody the heart and soul of your charity to become an ambassador and fundraise for you! They don’t need to be elite runners, and it doesn’t matter if this is their first event. What matters is their willingness to step up, inspire others, and make a difference.

Do you know someone who would be a great ambassador for your cause?

To express your interest, please email lee@teamgeelong.com.

Applications for local charities close June 30.

Let’s show what Geelong can achieve when we run together.
