Event information
Run for Hope is a 5km fun run organised by The Cindy Foundation on Youth Day. The event raises funds towards the Foundation’s Safe House Project, which aims to provide a dedicated safe space for children living in the informal settlement on Nectar Road in Retreat. The Cindy Foundation works with children and families in need in the Retreat area of Cape Town’s South Peninsula.
The run is led by running group Lime CPT, who will guide participants around the Zandvlei course. All finishers receive a medal and a goodie bag. Runners are encouraged to bring non-perishable food items on the day to supplement the Foundation’s ongoing support for families in the Nectar Road settlement. The route covers 5km within the Zandvlei Recreational Park, a wetland nature reserve and public green space on the shores of Zandvlei estuary, adjacent to the False Bay coastline.
