The Bloemfontein Hellenic Community held its first charity trail run on September 24, 2019 to raise money for a young couple from their community who had immigrated to America and found themselves in financial distress after one member was diagnosed with cancer. Over 135 runners participated in the 10km, 5km, or 1km fun run which raised R14,000 for the couple. The event was supported by several local businesses and provided refreshments and medals to participants.
