The successful Santa Run Chania is to take place for another year on Saturday, December 23 at 13:00, at the 1st Gymnasium of Chania. It is a festive, charitable organization that raises money for ill children and, as the official website says, “In our Santa Run we are all winners because we offer aid to children in need.”
Greekreporter.com notes that the Santa Run Chania is a distance of around 3.5 km through the historic and commercial center of Chania, The money raised will be offered to four institutions for children with health problems: ELEPAP, KIFAAMEA, KIFAP and Orizontas.
The event was started in Chania by a group of friends which turned into a volunteer group and eventually became a pioneering event in Greece. This is the sixth year that the Santa Run is being held in Chania. Up to now, the charity organization has raised 320,000 euros for the four institutions. This year, they hope to raise 100,000 euros for the children in need.
The day of Santa Run Chania is Saturday, the 23rd of December: 9.00am – 13pm
