2023/03/31
The FIT For Charity Run 2022 Donation Ceremony was held at SMBC Nikko Securities Inc. on March 13th, 2023, marking the final event for the 2022 event. Sponsors, Donors, representatives of beneficiary charity organisations, and FIT For Charity organising committee members attended the event.
FIT For Charity Run 2022 was held online run over one month from November 14th and real run in Japan’s new National Stadium with over 5,500 participants from 79financial services and related foreign and domestic firms. We raised JPY54,812,952 through financial support from our Sponsor firms, participation fees, and goods and services provided by our Donors. After deducting event expenses and foreign exchange fees, JPY44,344,000 will be donated equally to our six beneficiary charity organisations.
The FIT For Charity Run 2022 Donation Ceremony opened with welcome remarks from the Organising Committee Co-Chairs who shared highlights of the event, followed by presentations from the 2022 event beneficiaries on how they plan to use the donated funds. Through the beneficiary’spresentations, the attendees gained a deeper understanding of the issues that are present in our society and the charities’ efforts in addressing these issues.
Each representative also emphasized their commitment to make best use of the funds as well as the positive impact our donations are expected to make.
FIT For Charity Run brings the financial industry together to give back to the community and to build stronger relationships between the participating firms. While raising donation funds is one of the main objectives of the event, it also aims to facilitate positive outcomes for the beneficiary charity organisations and the benefactors by providing opportunities for both parties to interact with each other.
Although the donation ceremony marks the completion of the annual FIT For Charity Run event operations, we are actively looking for new volunteers to join our organizing committee and work together with us to continue FIT For Charity Run.
Information regarding the 2023 FIT For Charity Run will be posted on this website once confirmed.
We look forward to your continued support of FIT For Charity Run.
