Community Project Fund Raising

In 2021 we started the journey of our various SkyRun /Far and Wide community projects. The bee project and tree planting project begun in 2022, and the communities are already very excited about these projects. In 2023 we are asking each athlete that enters SkyRun and gets a space, to pledge a sponsored amount towards these projects. This amount must be raised through sponsors, such as businesses and friends to support SkyRun Zim’s sustainability pledge. All of these funds go directly towards these projects.

Sponsored Entries

For the last couple of years Far and Wide Zimbabwe has sponsored 4 Gonarezhou Conservation Trust Rangers and the Ruzawi School Groundsman to enter this incredible race. Each year the rangers have done incredibly well and in 2020 they won the race for the first time, they followed up this win with a first and second in 2021. 2020 and 2021 also saw Peter Kaudani win a sponsored entry. Peter works at Ruzawi school as one of the grounds keepers. He did exceptionally well to pick up second place in the mens lite event in 2020 and a first place in 2021. In 2021 we opened up an option to apply for a sponsored position. We open up this option so that anyone who may not be able to afford the entry fees will have a chance to enter. Simply click on the form and apply.
