2026 WALKATHON FUNDRAISER

Saturday, August 15, 2026 @ 9:00 am

WHY WE ARE RAISING FUNDS:

CGE is growing in the increased number of children and families that need their support daily.

Children are currently gathered in trailers with tight spaces, so we are raising funds to build a large tent area that can host up to 100 people and serve as a mobile community center – a space where children can learn, play and thrive safely.

WAYS TO PARTICIPATE:

• Local Participants

  Collect donation pledges from friends and family online using the link provided after signing up to join the walk, or pick up a pledge form at the church. Join us for the 5K or 10K walk on event day. Top local fundraisers will be eligible to win exciting prizes!

• International Participants

  Collect donation pledges from friends and family online using the link provided after signing up to join the walk. Walk in your local area, track your distance using a digital step counter or fitness app, and submit your time-stamped report for a chance to win a prize.

• Donate

  Individuals and businesses are invited to support the Walkathon by making a contribution. Whether you’re pledging in support of a participant or giving directly, your donation helps us reach our fundraising goal and make a lasting impact in Mathibestad, South Africa.

• 1st, 2nd & 3rd Place Winners (for 5K & 10K)
