Ready to lace up your sneakers and leave impactful footprints? Meet Andrea Gonzalez, one of the incredible 2024 Fundraising Fellows at Bridging Gaps. She is developing her campaign, Run to Bridge the Gaps, dedicated to supporting entrepreneurs in the Global South!
Andrea was inspired to start her campaign because of the role running plays in her own life: “personally, running is a way to manage daily life stress while engaging in a healthy activity. I am a newcomer to the running world but I see its potential to bring people together for a bigger cause,” she says.
This isn’t your average race—it's a global virtual event with a cause, bringing together runners from all corners of the world to support marginalized communities. Whether you're a runner or someone who cheers on the sidelines, this is your chance to be part of something bigger.
Run for a Cause, Not Just Applause🏅
Run to Bridge the Gaps is a global virtual race, with a physical event in Paris, aiming to raise funds for our entrepreneurs. Each month, we will select three entrepreneurs who will be funded by the runners! Here are the race details:
Set Distance: Run 5 km to support an entrepreneur for 10 euros
Collective Goal: A collective goal of 2,025 km among all participants—for a better future!
Three entrepreneurs will be supported in the March campaign.
