🏃🏾‍♀️Victoria is running 85.8 km for children in need. 💙

This year, her Comrades Marathon is about more than crossing a finish line. Through Bahari Bay Eco Estate and Distance For Difference, she is raising R50 000 for D4D-supported foster homes and Rehoboth Children’s Village on the South Coast.

Every sponsored step can change lives.

💙 So proud of the young man Gino became. 🔥

Fair to say success tends to follow Springbok Sevens outside back Gino Cupido, and where top-class rugby has been played on the global stage in 2025 and 2026, he left a footprint.

At Distance For Difference, we believe that movement can become a powerful force for good. 💛

In this short radio interview extract, our Founder and Chairman, Stéphan, briefly share more about some of the fundraising events and platforms that help us support vulnerable children and children’s organisations across South Africa.

From running, cycling, hiking and other endurance challenges, to special D4D events like The GRATITUDE Run, THE500 and HIKE with Purpose, every kilometre, every entry and every donation helps us make a difference where it is truly needed.

Thank you to every participant, supporter, donor, volunteer and sponsor who helps turn movement into hope.

🧑🏽‍🦼‍ When generosity becomes life-changing…

Recently, Distance For Difference was able to make a donation to the Gabriella Centre for Physically & Intellectually Challenged Children & Young Adults.

At the time, the team at Gabriella had stepped out in faith to help a little girl in their care who urgently needed a specialised, custom wheelchair. Her seating challenges were complex and were affecting both her health and quality of life.

They knew she needed help.

They made the arrangements.

They trusted that a way would open.

And through the generosity of our D4D supporters, we were able to be part of that answer.

The donation also helped the centre purchase much-needed incontinence products and groceries for the children and young adults in their care.

This is why we do what we do.

Every entry, every donation, every kilometre, every act of kindness helps us support organisations like Gabriella Centre — places where love is practical, daily, and life-changing.

Thank you to every person who helps make stories like this possible. 💛

Thank you 💙

Thank you 💙

Today we pause to say thank you.

Because of the kindness and support from Distance For Difference, we are able to continue providing 24/7 care, comfort, and love to the vulnerable babies in our home.

This generous R50 000 donation towards our caregivers means safe arms to hold, gentle care through the night, and daily support for every little one who needs it most.

Thank you for standing with us and helping us continue this important work. We are deeply grateful for your heart and partnership.
