Foundation
“Together, we inspire wellbeing for all through physical activity in a just and sustainable environment.”
Funding Mission
The Congo River Marathon Inc. is one of the DR Congo’s funders of projects and initiatives that educates and inspires children and adults across the country to lead active and healthy lives through Congo River Marathon Events by Endurance Sports Industry Sarl. We believe that participating in sport and physical activity has the power to change and transform lives in a positive way and create a more health conscious society.
We advance social upliftment by providing much needed funding for education, health and environmental to charities in the DRC with our “Run for a Good Cause”-Program, where participants raise funds & awareness.
Beyond our funding, we are a leading voice in championing accessible, inclusive and sustainable sport and physical activities, so that everyone, regardless of age, background or ability, has the potential to lead an active life – opening up the benefits of physical activity to all.
We create new opportunities for those who are less likely to be active. We are prioritising initiatives that support children, young people and marginalised communities to lead active and healthy lives.
