The 2024 Deputy Governor’s 5K Challenge has set a new benchmark in community engagement and philanthropy, raising a remarkable $90,000 for its three beneficiaries: Boyz2Men, the National Council of Voluntary Organisations (NCVO), and the Addison Kelly Memorial Scholarship Fund.
Marking the event’s 10th anniversary, the DG's 5K challenge attracted more than 2,100 participants while celebrating a decade of promoting fitness and giving back to the community under the unifying theme of “Supporting our future generations”.
Deputy Governor Hon. Franz Manderson expressed his heartfelt gratitude for the overwhelming support the fundraising event received. In his statement, Mr. Manderson said, “As a result of the unwavering support from the business community, the civil service, the statutory authorities, government companies, and the wider community our three charities will each receive $30,000 to further their efforts within our community.”
