The 2017 edition of IPERrun for Children, the non-competitive charity run meant to support Team for Children ONLUS, was held on the 17th of September in Abignasego, Padua.

 

Over 600 people joined the event and built a long, yellow parade: young people and adults, families and running groups spent a sport and solidarity morning together, donating a total of 6,100€ for the construction of the Teen Zone, the new space dedicated to the teenagers hospitalized in the Department of Pediatric Onco-hematology of Padua.

 

The participant list included also some showbiz celebrities and prominent sportspeople, such as Moreno Morello - correspondent of the most famous Italian satiric program, “Striscia la Notizia” - , Mauro Bergamasco - rugby player - and the young athletics champion Filippo Tortu together with the Fiamme Gialle Sports Group.

 

From the event planning to the management of the event on the spot, from art direction to all the communication tools, YAK Agency has taken care of each aspect of the event, which had a +50% attendance growth in comparison to the previous year.

 

We are very happy to have organized IPERrun for Children also this year - claim Marco Dalla Dea and Giovanni Cecolin, Managing Partners of the agency - For YAK Agency it’s a pleasure to have the chance to work on events like this, which mix sport and charity. The success in terms of participation makes us happy and is a further motivation for 2018. Thanks to all the people that have joined us running for a good cause. See you next year”.
