The eleventh annual Financial Industry in Tokyo (FIT) For Charity Run (hereafter “FIT For Charity Run 2015”) will take place on Sunday, 8th November, 2015 at around Meiji Jingu Gaien running course.



FIT For Charity Run is a charity event organised by the financial community and related industries in Tokyo that aims to raise money and to support non-profit organisations that conduct local community activities. The
FIT For Charity Organising Committee was established soon after the Major Earthquake off the Coast of Sumatra and Tsunami in the Indian Ocean in late 2004. The very first Charity Run was held in 2005, and! since then, the event has become an annual tradition.

The tenth FIT For Charity Run was held on Sunday, 8th December with 104 companies participating, 5,900 participants and over JPY 59 million raised from donations. The funds raised were divided equally among the 8 selected beneficiary organisations based in the Kanto region. FIT For Charity Run is dedicated to supporting non-profit community organisations serving important, but not necessarily well-recognized needs and with limited fundraising capabilities.

The program of the event and the registration of runners and sponsors will be announced on this website soon.

Event Outline

In addition, the FIT For Charity Run 2015 Organising Committee is looking for companies who would like to support the event preparation and participate and/or sponsor (monetary or in-kind donations). The run has achieved great public awareness and increased recognition within the industry, both foreign and Japanese. The tremendous and continuous success of the FIT For Charity Run events has helped to demonstrate the commitment of companies and individuals in the financial industry, as well as great cooperation of many companies and organizations, to make a difference to the community in which we live and work. We hope for another successful year.
