IN A HEART-warming display of community spirit, the Kimberley Harriers Running Club is gearing up to host a special 4.9-kilometre Mandela Day fun run and walk.
The eagerly anticipated event is dedicated to supporting Yonder and individuals living with intellectual disabilities, embodying the true spirit of Mandela Day.
Scheduled for tomorrow, the event will kick off at 3pm at the Yonder festive area. The organisers have put out a heartfelt plea to the community to join in and show their support.
Entry to the event is uniquely structured around donations, inviting participants to contribute clothing, toiletries or cash, with every bit of the proceeds going directly to Yonder.
Participants of all ages and fitness levels are welcome to join the fun run and walk, making it a family-friendly affair. The 4.9-kilometre route is designed to be accessible yet engaging, ensuring a memorable experience for everyone involved.
Yonder, an organisation dedicated to supporting people with intellectual disabilities, will greatly benefit from the donations collected. These contributions will help provide essential items and services to those in need, enhancing their quality of life.
The event promises more than just a run or walk; it’s a chance for the community to unite and share in the joy of giving. The festive area at Yonder will be buzzing with activity, fostering a sense of camaraderie and shared purpose among all attendees.
“We’re calling on everyone to join us,” the organisers said. “Whether you’re an avid runner, a casual walker, or simply someone who wants to support a good cause, your presence and contributions will make a significant impact.”
Don't miss this opportunity to make a difference. Lace up your running shoes, gather your friends and family, and head to the Yonder festive area tomorrow at 3pm.
