- You empower our boys in realising their goals.
- You contribute towards providing a safe, child-friendly environment in which our boys will grow.
- You enjoy a fun-filled morning focussed on healthy competition and camaraderie in a family-friendly environment.
When your organisation enters a 42 K Buddy Up Relay Marathon, there are the additional benefits of promoting your company in a variety of media, and enjoying a morning of successful team-building.

- When the event takes place
- Each event requires 28 participants – two teams of 14.

- The START and FINISH of each leg is at the gates of ACVV Khayalethu Child and Youth Care Centre, where participants and supporters are able to enjoy entertainment and refreshments, give starters a great send-off and finishers, a warm welcome home.
- There is an entrance fee of R100 per person.
- Proceeds from the sales of refreshments will go towards this fundraising project.
- A fee is charged for the opportunity to erect branding materials at home base and along the marathon route.
We’re hoping to hold a 42 K Buddy Up Relay Marathon on the first weekend of the month, every two months. The start is a 07h00 and the event usually lasts from two to three hours, depending on the pace of the participants. Ask us about the next available date.
