WHAT’S THE CAUSE?

The Westerpark Run is organized and hosted by educate., a grassroots non-profit that works to empower young people in Honduras through community-driven educational initiatives. This year, educate. is part of the Global Giving Accelerator, where we have just two and a half weeks to raise at least €5,000! These funds will help us open the first Youth Center and Community Library in Honduras’ coffee-growing department of Santa Bárbara. By joining the Westerpark Run, you can be part of it!
