Do you want to save a life?

Donating blood is a tangible and easy way of doing good. Every day, patients in Finland need the
help of hundreds of blood donors. The blood donated by volunteers helps over 50 000 patients a year. This help cannot be replaced by money or medicines.

A small moment of your time can give someone else the rest of their life.

Let’s get together to move for a good cause on the 1st of October! It is time for our annual Pinktober Charity Run, organized by SHS Sports Committee and HankBoobie, the breast cancer fundraiser.  The goal is to raise awareness of breast cancer and donate money to the Pink Ribbon. 

The event will take place on Saturday, 1st of October from 12-16 pm. As previously, it will be held at Töölönlahti, Helsinki. The route around Töölönlahti is about 2 kilometres, and you can run or walk as many rounds as you wish. So don’t hesitate to participate!

All the money raised at the charity run will go straight to the Roosa Nauha -association, which is collecting funds for breast cancer research in Finland. By signing up for the event, you are free to donate whatever amount of money you are able to. Every single donation is important and appreciated. You could also challenge yourself to donate a certain amount per round you perform.
