Run for Ukraine – Give a child wings

You run so a child can fly

Sunday, April 19

Join SOFT Tulip, Wilde Ganzen, and the Ukrainian Running Club Amsterdam for a meaningful charity run: Run for Ukraine.

A day full of hope, strength, and solidarity. This event takes place in the heart of Wilde Week, a nationwide action week organised by Dutch development organisation Wilde Ganzen, during which foundations and private development actors across the Netherlands host fundraising activities to support projects that create opportunities around the world.

Why we run

Purpose: Early Childhood Intervention (ECI)
This run raises funds for our Early Childhood Intervention programme for children in Ukraine.
You run so a child can fly.

What this means:

• Wings = access to Early Childhood Intervention

• Wings = parents receiving knowledge and support

• Wings = child development despite the war

Every child deserves the chance to thrive, even in the toughest circumstances.
