FIT For Charity Run 2018 will be held on 9th December 2018
2018/05/01
The fourteenth annual Financial Industry in Tokyo (FIT) For Charity Run (hereafter “FIT For Charity Run 2018”) will take place on Sunday, December 9th, 2018 around the Meiji Memorial Picture Gallery and Meiji Jingu Gaien Outer Course in Shinjuku, Tokyo.
FIT For Charity Run is a charity event organized by the financial community and related industries in Tokyo, aiming to raise money to support non-profit organisations that address social issues in our local community. FIT For Charity Organising Committee was established in 2004, soon after the Major Earthquake off the Coast of Sumatra and Tsunami in the Indian Ocean, and the very first FIT For Charity Run was held in 2005. Since then, the event has become an annual tradition for the financial community and related industries in Tokyo.
FIT For Charity Run 2017 was held on December 10th, 2017. 5,549 individuals from 104 financial services and related companies in Tokyo came together to raise approximately 59.4 million yen. The funds were divided equally among eight not-for-profit organisations, which tackle issues in the Kanto area and have limited recognition or fund-raising capabilities. Last year’s event was supported by a record 62 sponsor companies, a strong indication of the commitment of companies and individuals in the financial industry to make a difference to the community in which we live and work.
