For the first year, a number of important charities have teamed up to organize a major cross communal fundraising charity event called the FunRun. The event is managed by Maccabi VAC Hungary and the following charities are presently involved: Bálint Ház, Beit Shalom, EMIH, Israeli Cultural Institute, Jaffe, Jewish Meeting Point, Maccabi VAC Hungary, Manora and Misko Fundation.
You can read more about all of these organizations by clicking here.
The budget of the FunRun was shared among the participated organizations. Choosing a charity during your registration means that the chosen one will receive your registration fee directly. Please join us on Sunday, 5th June 2011 at the Old Jewish Quarter of Budapest to enjoy our fabulous FunRun event and the JUDAFEST FESTIVAL for kids and families to complete either 1km, 5km or 10km course in order to raise money for your chosen charity. We can promise that you and your family will have a tremendously rewarding day and meet like-minded people who are raising much-needed funds for the outstanding communal organizations involved. The Community Fun Run unites and engages the entire community, young and old, serious runner to casual stroller. All fitness levels are welcome and the event is aimed at adults, kids and families who can opt for the traditional 5km or 10km course or the 1km course. This 1km shorter route means that ABSOLUTELY ANYBODY can participate, from the youngest to the oldest – at any fitness level. The 5km run is a more challenging but fun option where you can walk, jog, run, push a buggy or even participate hopping in fancy dress! The 10km course is generally recommended for the more serious runner. Whatever your reason for getting involved, do please participate. Whatever you can raise is worth raising and you might even want to use this as an excuse to train and get fit! To register for the 2011 Community Fun Run online now: click here.
