Fancy a run for a good cause?
Once again this year, Mehad is taking part in the ‘Dossards Engagés’ initiative: the perfect opportunity to combine your passion for running with your commitment to charity. Join us at the Paris Half Marathon on 7 March 2027 and the Paris Marathon on 4 April 2027, and turn every kilometre into support for our healthcare work in conflict zones.
By running in Mehad’s colours, you become a true ambassador for solidarity. More than just a sporting challenge, this adventure is a practical way to support our work in Syria, Ukraine, Palestine, Yemen and Lebanon, where our teams work day in, day out to ensure that people affected by war have access to healthcare.
With a ‘Dossard Engagé Mehad’ entry for the Paris Half Marathon, you’re taking on a double challenge: to run 21 km and raise €210 in donations from your friends and family – that’s €10 per kilometre. For the Paris Marathon, the challenge increases to 42.195 km and €420 in donations, still based on €10 per kilometre, to benefit Mehad.
The ‘Dossard Engagé’ – a guide:
- Book your race number: register for the Half Marathon here or for the Marathon here.
- I am raising funds: please ask your friends and family to help me reach my fundraising target (€210 for the half-marathon, €420 for the marathon). All proceeds will be donated to Mehad’s charitable work.
- On the big day, with your race number in hand, you’ll line up at the start alongside thousands of other runners to take part in an event that’s both a sporting challenge and a show of solidarity.
Good to know: every donation made to Mehad entitles you to a tax relief of 75 per cent of the amount donated. A donation of €100 therefore costs you just €25. That’s sure to encourage your friends and family to support your challenge!
Don’t wait any longer to book your race number. Together, let’s turn these races into a celebration of humanity and generosity that transcends borders. Your energy and determination will enable us to step up our support for those who need it most.
