Following the success of our charity campaign last year, the Fiera Real Estate’s Ekiden fundraiser is back!
This year, we are fundraising for Grace Academy, a secondary school based in Coventry with 850 pupils. COVID has been a massive challenge for many of the Academy’s students, with a number of them disappearing from school during the period of home learning.
The money we raise will go towards improving the pupils’ resources for academia, school uniform and sports to help them to flourish in their development, confidence, and resilience.
Over the weekend of 13th-15th May, teams of 5-10 will compete in a walking/running/cycling competition to cover the most distance in one single session, and raise the most money. The teams that raise and travel the most will win themselves an additional donation of £500 from Fiera Real Estate for the Grace Academy.
Each team has a minimum target distance of 100km (average of 10km to be completed by each team member).
For teams of less than 10, the distances travelled will multiplied accordingly. For distances cycled, the total km covered will be divided by four to ensure fairness across the teams.
If you would like to get involved as a participant, or lead your own team, drop our Charity Committee an email. To donate, see our fundraising page here.
